Setup a SSH gateway hop
Raw
HOWTO.md

Setting up a multihop ssh connection with Putty

  • In the "hostname" field in putty set the real target address (this must be resolvable by the gateway host)
  • Under Connection->Proxy select proxy type "local"
  • Enter the gateway address (as resolvable by the client computer) into the "Proxy hostname" field
  • enter the username and possibly password for the gateway
  • in the "telnet command, or local proxy command" field enter "plink -agent -l %user %proxyhost -nc %host:%port"
  • this oviously requires you to have plink either in the same folder as putty or within the global windows searchpath
  • Under Conntion->Data optionally enter the username for the target machine
  • save and you are done
