[jira] [Commented] (VFS-440) [SFTP] Stream (e.g. netcat) proxy for Sftp file system (aka ProxyCommand)

["Benjamin Piwowarski (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-440?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13472282#comment-13472282 ] 

Benjamin Piwowarski commented on VFS-440:
-----------------------------------------

By the way, I had to lower the version of org.bouncycastle.bcprov-jdk15on to 1.46 (this is because sshd-core was downgraded to 0.7.0, svn commit 1395117, but bcprov remained on 1.47)

> What I propose is to add the possibility to connect to a remote SSH server through an SSH connection stream (instead of an HTTP or SOCKS proxy). See for instance
> http://backdrift.org/transparent-proxy-with-ssh
> for a use case.
> This simulates a ProxyCommand where the command is run on a SSH host.
> The patch also contains a test for the new functionality. 
> Example of use (with the netcat command nc -q 0 HOSTNAME PORT)
> {code:java}
> builder.setProxyType(opts, SftpFileSystemConfigBuilder.PROXY_STREAM);
> builder.setProxyCommand(opts, SftpStreamProxy.NETCAT_COMMAND);
> builder.setProxyHost(opts, "gate.way.host");
> builder.setProxyPort(opts, 22);
> builder.setProxyOptions(opts, proxyOptions);
> {code}
