That didn't seem to work. I'm basically trying to do the following: http://www.hackaday.com/2005/08/31/h...p-proxy-setup/

It's just a matter of setting up the host PC to run as a SSH server running Privoxy.

On the client PC, using Putty to make the connection to the server, tunnel the SSH traffic to 127.0.0.1 port 8118.

As I said before this setup does works fine while in XP (even pointing Firefox to 127.0.0.1 port 8118), but not when I'm in Debian.
