  1. When abroad I access a country restricted site by SSH tunneling to my DDWRT router at home. Currently I do it using plink and a SOCKS proxy configured browser.


    I want to make it simpler by setting up a proxy webpage on my webhost or on the google apps engine. The backend of this proxy webpage should route the traffic through the SSH tunnel on my home router. So instead of firing up plink and connecting to the router manually, I'll simply go to the url of the proxy webpage.


    I've looked at several options - glype, mirrorrr.appspot.com, etc. But they all use the server hosting the proxy website as the endpoint. I need to make my router the endpoint.


    Anyone played with things like this before?



  2. Ok, I managed to add cryptsetup to the installed system (Ubuntu in my case) and it is now possible to create the key on boot to unlock the target partition. I also had to copy the resolv.conf from the live to the installed environment for my internet (and apt-get/update/...) to work.

    Only thing left is to automate the unlocking process on boot. I added a keyscript option to the crypttab file:

    haktop	/dev/disk/by-uuid/UUID	none	luks,keyscript=/some-location-on-initramfs/keyscript.sh

    But how do I add the keyscript file to the initramfs image?

  3. Just do apt-get update then apt-get upgrade, it will redo everything.

    One thing to watch out for, I've noticed on both my BT and Ubuntu is that apt-get will start saying I don't need cryptsetup and put it on the autoremove list.

    Thanks. Will try.

  4. Valsacar, I am trying to encrypt an Ubuntu installation as well. You said after you did the chroot, you installed cryptsetup and updated busybox. I guess cryptsetup is in the apt-get repositories. But how do I update busybox?
