Transparent proxy server that works as a poor man's VPN. Forwards over ssh. Doesn't require admin. Works with Linux and MacOS. Supports DNS tunneling.

We previously called setsid() to ensure that the SIGINT generated by Ctrl+C went to the main sshuttle process instead of the firewall process. With the previous commit, we gracefully shutdown if either the sshuttle process or firewall process receives a SIGINT. Therefore, the setsid() call is optional. We still try calling setsid() since the preferred shutdown process involves having the signal go to the main sshuttle process. However, setsid() will fail if the firewall process is started with sudo and sudo is configured with the use_pty option. |

sshuttle: where transparent proxy meets VPN meets ssh
=====================================================
As far as I know, sshuttle is the only program that solves the following
common case:
- Your client machine (or router) is Linux, FreeBSD, or MacOS.
- You have access to a remote network via ssh.
- You don't necessarily have admin access on the remote network.
- The remote network has no VPN, or only stupid/complex VPN
protocols (IPsec, PPTP, etc). Or maybe you *are* the
admin and you just got frustrated with the awful state of
VPN tools.
- You don't want to create an ssh port forward for every
single host/port on the remote network.
- You hate openssh's port forwarding because it's randomly
slow and/or stupid.
- You can't use openssh's PermitTunnel feature because
it's disabled by default on openssh servers; plus it does
TCP-over-TCP, which has `terrible performance`_.
