Misc. Linux Tips

1. use Cygwin-X in windows, run X-server, connect to linux desktop ssh -Y, run nautilus ... works great :)
2. socks proxy
windows:
    use putty: create a session to remote ssh server, goto tunnel, add a port, select dynamic
    in firefox, set the proxy to manual: localhost at the selected port

    in Linux, create an ssh connection using ssh -D .... and use that port as a SOCKS proxy.
