Stories similar to SSH over HTTPS with proxytunnel and nginx

I would like to connect to a remote MySQL from my host, but the host is behind a ssh proxy, like this.

I have 3 hosts in this problem

A: my local machine (that can ssh to B) B: Intermediate machine that can SSH to C C: a remote server running MySQL and allows only connections from localhost (grant)

I use ~/.ssh/config to allow me to ssh directly from A to C (using B as proxy).

Host B Pro

I have web application on the Tomcat with webservices. I've noticed that all web services connected to https get timeout. I run this app on my localhost in my company.

When I redirect all my connections through Fiddler (local proxy) everything works correctly.

I am attempting to use nginx to create a server endpoint that can act as a dynamic proxy for an arbitrary endpoint.

The contract is:

http://{proxy-host}/p/{target-protocol}/{target-host}/{target-port}/{target-path}

For example, this url:

http://my.website.com/p/https/some.remote.api.com/8080/items

Should be proxied to:

https://some.remote.api.com:8080/items

However, I am getting a 404 No

I'm trying to setup of proxy using nginx, but it redirects rather than proxy it (at least that's what it looks like).

environment proxy variables 17 weeks 3 days ago

Hello,

On my Fedora 17 box I found:

Quote:

$ env|grep proxy http_proxy=http://localhost:8118/ https_proxy=http://localhost:8118/ no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.0/8

I cannot explain where these come from. I do not have privoxy or polipo on this box. I did not find stuff in /etc or ~/ that explains these.

Do you know where these are set?

I am developing an application against a remote https web service. While developing I need to proxy requests from my local development server (running nginx on ubuntu) to the remote https web server.

I'm setting up an external nginx server to proxy all outgoing traffic in order to simplify outbound firewall rules.

Local proxy for SSL service 19 weeks 1 day ago

I am trying to set up a local proxy for an SSL-based (HTTPS) service. The proxy will need access to the clear-text of the content going in both directions (for compliance reasons). I have control over the server certificate, as well as complete control over the proxy and its certificate.

I'm using the following httpd-vhosts.conf file to host several sites on my MacBook.

Apache Configuration

The first two virtual sites (v3.local,ss.local) are giving back the following error messages in the Apache error log:

[Thu Aug 30 15:12:04 2012] [error] (61)Connection refused: proxy: HTTP: attempt to connect to [fe80::1]:3002 (localhost) failed [Thu Aug 30 15:12:04 2012] [error] ap_proxy_co
