## Setup SSH keygen

sudo -s

Create the key
ssh-keygen

Then we need to add this to the authorized users in the local user

cat /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> /home/localuser/.ssh/authorized_keys

## Now creating a SOCKS server

/usr/bin/ssh -fND 5534 localuser@127.0.0.1

You can place this in the startup scripts
