But they allow us to steam video from youtube all day long. (Just to note: this is a graduate school) | ||

1) Set up an ssh server on a computer than can access battle.net The easiest way to do this is to install linux (which is super easy) and then in the terminal type "sudo apt-get install openssh-server openssh-client" without the quotes. Next, find your ip by typing in the terminal ifconfig 2) Set up an account to ssh with. Type in the terminal "adduser 'name'", where name is the user name you want. Set up a password 3) Check your server by in the terminal, typing "ssh name@your ip address" If it works, great, just exit. 4) On your home computer, install putty (an ssh client). Tell it the IP your ssh server and save Under ssh->tunnels, give it a tunnel through port 2345, and click the dynamic button, then tell it to add the tunnel. 5) Download and install proxifier. Set the default proxy settings to 127.0.0.1 port 2345, and tell it to proxy all traffic. 6) Connect to your ssh server 7) Activate proxifier. 8) Starcraft should now be working over your ssh link. ------------------------- What is this actually doing? Proxifier is setting up a socks proxy on your home machine. It sends all the traffic on your machine through port 2345, going to the same place it normally goes. However, your ssh client is listening on port 2345, and its sending all that traffic over the ssh link. The ssh server on the other end gets your traffic, and then sends it where it needs to go. Can I share my ssh server with friends? I havent tried, but I doubt it. I bet that Battle net is not going to let two people with the same IP log on. | ||

Is there additional configuration necessary on the server? Messing with iptables/forwarding or something? | ||

Of course it will let two people with the same IP log on. It will most definately also allow at least 3-5, not sure on the upper limit. A ton of people are playing from behind routers, meaning blizzard is only seeing 1 IP address and all computers behind the router share that IP adress from blizzard's point of view. | ||

Help would be appreciated ^^ Hm it's pretty straight forward shouldn't need the config files. I just set up a "dynamic" tunnel with putty, source port 1119 (the port sc2 uses) and destination xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1119 where that would be the ip or domain of your ssh server. connect to the ssh server and then run proxifier. Then set your proxy server information in proxifier. Set address to "localhost", port to "1119", and protocol to "socks 5". Then create a proxification rule to send all traffic over port 1119 to that proxy server. Wham bam flam sc2 will now send all traffic over your ssh connection. configuring tunnel in putty: (hit add after inputting) ![[image loading]](http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/5213/putty.jpg) setting up proxy server information in proxifier: ![[image loading]](http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/5024/proxyb.jpg) setting proxification rule in proxifier: ![[image loading]](http://img807.imageshack.us/img807/2093/proxyificatin.jpg) If your dialog boxes look different for proxifier its because I'm using the portable version 2.91. I think the only difference is setting up the proxification rule you specify which proxy server to use whereas in the portable version it just uses the one by default, and chains them if you have more than one. | ||

 I SSH-tunneled through our work proxy to my home machine (win 7 64 bit), and browsing stuff and watching day9 etc works. Now, when I try to startup starcraft2, it tries the following : "CONNECT enGB.logon.battle.net:1119 outgoing via 127.0.0.1" 200 0 "SOCKS5" "after that I get no response  Since this is a local request from my home box (at least that's what it tries to look like), I shouldn't have to add stuff to the proxy server right ?please help, I can only play sc2 2 out of 4 weeks now ps, I checked the log on CCproxy, and me and my workmates tried worms armageddon too, and that DID seem to work : "CONNECT wormnet1.team17.com:80 outgoing via 127.0.0.1" 200 0 "SOCKS5" big difference is the port number, worms tries port 80, starcraft tries 1119... I'm gonna have a look at my local firewall now, brb edit : nope, disabling the firewall didnt work tried setting the socksifier (sockscap) to socks4, this was the result : 19:36:42 Unknown 127.0.0.1 CONNECT 10.193.5.169:8080 SOCKS4 so nothing better than on socks5. anyone any great ideas ? tried proxifier, and I'm getting a different result now ? this is what the CCproxy log says : 127.0.0.1 - Unknown [24/Jan/2012:19:44:57 +0100] "CONNECT enGB.nydus.battle.net:80 outgoing via 127.0.0.1" 200 0 "SOCKS5" "" 127.0.0.1 - Unknown [24/Jan/2012:19:44:58 +0100] "CONNECT enGB.nydus.battle.net:80 outgoing via 127.0.0.1" 200 0 "SOCKS5" "" 127.0.0.1 - Unknown [24/Jan/2012:19:44:58 +0100] "CONNECT eu.launcher.battle.net:80 outgoing via 127.0.0.1" 200 0 "SOCKS5" "" 127.0.0.1 - Unknown [24/Jan/2012:19:44:58 +0100] "CONNECT eu.launcher.battle.net:80 outgoing via 127.0.0.1" 200 0 "SOCKS5" "" but ingame I get the following error : you have attempted to connect to an invalid server, please contact yadayadayada anyone ? aaarggh sooo clooose | ||

I'm from south america and my regular latency is 250ms. Yes, a lot. Honestly i have no idea about tunenling, ssh or putty, i started to google and read about those. Still, maybe someone find really easy to handle this, so can please anyone update a bit this thread. Is still posible to tunnel in Sc2 and improve the latency? | ||
