Proxy PAC file template for selective SSH SOCKS proxies, plus a [re]installation script.
// Proxy PAC File
// - Used to redirect certain addresses to the server through the SOCKS ssh port (1280 for this file), i.e.
// tunnel traffic through server.
// - Useful for easily accessing webpages from services running on a server (Jupyter notebooks, TensorBoard, Spark UI, etc.)
// that is otherwise locked down by a firewall.
// - To install on OS X/MacOS, go to "Settings->Network->Advanced->Proxies->Automatic Proxy Configuration"
// and paste the local file url (`file:///absolute/path/to/proxy.pac`).
// - Alternatively, use `./reinstall_proxy.sh`.
// - SSH to the server with `ssh -D 1280 ....`.

Create a proxy server on an Amazon EC2 (VPC) instance

This will create a proxy server in whatever your availability zone your VPC is in. For me, that's us-east-1b. For you, that may be something different. Steps 10+ should more or less work regardless of your provider since those steps cover the setup and configuration of TinyProxy.

  1. Click the Launch Instance button.
  2. Choose Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS (HVM), SSD Volume Type. This isn't strictly necessary. If you choose another OS, check its documentation for how to install new packages.
  3. On the Choose an Instance Type screen, select t2.micro. It's Free Tier eligible.
  4. Click the Next: ... buttons until you reach the Configure Security Group screen.
    • You may wish to reduce the amount of storage on the Add Storage screen. This is optional.
    • You may wish to add a tag on the Tag Instance screen. This is also optional.
  5. On the Configure Security Group screen:
  • Select Create a new security group.

Lista coworkingów w Krakowie

Coworking w Krakowie

Update 28.04.2018

Otworzyło się ostatnio tyle nowych coworków, że nie nadążam tego odwiedzać :) Będę się starał stopniowo aktualizować listę, w międzyczasie polecam przeglądnąć komentarze pod postem. (Nie chcę szczerze mówiąc przenosić tego do jakiegoś bardziej zorganizowanego repozytorium, bo chcę, żeby to pozostało takim moim osobistym nieobiektywnym review tych coworków - ciężko byłoby uzgadniać, czy w danym miejscu jest głośno, albo czy jest fajna atmosfera... W razie wątpliwości, post jest dostępny na licencji WTFPL :)

Opening and closing an SSH tunnel in a shell script the smart way

Opening and closing an SSH tunnel in a shell script the smart way

I recently had the following problem:

  • From an unattended shell script (called by Jenkins), run a command-line tool that accesses the MySQL database on another host.
  • That tool doesn't know that the database is on another host, plus the MySQL port on that host is firewalled and not accessible from other machines.

We didn't want to open the MySQL port to the network, but it's possible to SSH from the Jenkins machine to the MySQL machine. So, basically you would do something like

ssh -L 3306:localhost:3306 remotehost
