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.

Additional comments, checks, warning messages, and diagnostic information is printed out when the client starts. We assume IPv4 is always present and enabled. We assume IPv6 is not supported when it is disabled at the command line or when it is not supported by the firewall method. Warn if IPv6 is disabled but the user specified IPv6 subnets, IPv6 DNS servers, or IPv6 excludes that are effectively ignored. Instead of indicating which features are on/off, we also indicate if features are available in the verbose output. We also more clearly print the subnets that we forward, excludes, and any redirected DNS servers to the terminal output. These changes should help handling bug reports and make it clearer to users what is happening. It should also make it more graceful when a user specifies a subnet/exclude with hostname that resolves to both IPv4 and IPv6 (but IPv6 is disabled in sshuttle). |

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`_.
