Informatics VPN via SSH

In addition to VPN internal department services can also be accessed with an SSH tunnel through rzssh1.informatik.uni-hamburg.de.

Tunneling with sshuttle

The Python script sshuttle can be installed via the Linux package managers, with MacPorts or with pip. The command given below will run as a background process; intranet access works until this script is killed.

Intranet access:

If you want to access informatics- and university-internal services::

sudo sshuttle -r 0user@rzssh1.informatik.uni-hamburg.de 134.100.0.0/16 -x 134.100.9.63

Access to external resources through the Informatics network:

If you want to route all IP traffic over the Informatics network to access external resources from an Informatics address:

sudo sshuttle -r 0user@rzssh1.informatik.uni-hamburg.de 0/0 -x 134.100.9.63
