Play World of Warcraft via SOCKS or SSH tunnel
Okay, I figured it out. At the bottom of the MacPorts page for tsocks, was the following message:
The tsocks.conf.sample file is in ${prefix}/etc. Rename it to tsocks.conf to use it. You should set tordns_enable to false if you're not using Tor.I believe that that is a warning it spits out to you upon install now. So, after you install tsocks your tsocks.conf file should look like the following: server = 127.0.0.1 server_type = 5 server_port = 1080 tordns_enable = falseWe're connecting through SSH, not a Tor network so we don't want to do DNS resolution through Tor. You will also note that I changed server_type to 5. OpenSSH can handle both versions of SOCKS and we might as well use the more recent one. This is not a necessary change. Further, there is no need to use the -L flag. We are using SOCKS which will handle everything for us. I can connect fine using the following: ssh -D 1080 USER@HOSTOther useful SSH flags to consider:
