Quentin Santos 93b969a049 Fix compatibility with the sudoers file Starting sshuttle without having to type in one's password requires to put the sudo-ed command in the `/etc/sudoers` file. However, sshuttle sets an environment variable, which cannot be done as-is in the sudoers file. This fix prepend the /usr/bin/env command, which allows one to pass fixed environment variables to a sudo-ed command. In practice, the sub-command: ``` sudo PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages -- \ /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/sshuttle --method auto --firewall ``` becomes ``` sudo /usr/bin/env PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages \ /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/sshuttle --method auto --firewall ```		2018-02-16 08:07:02 +11:00

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 (see below).
