Using WodTunnel as Socks proxy and it works just 2 (General questions)

Hi,

And thanks for the great component WodTunnel, I'm considering buying a SSh component with Socks proxy feature ( local dynamic port forwading) and I found WodTunnel and just testing it in Visual Studio 2010, I set the wodTunel1 settings and Also changed the Channel type to Socksproxy and when I run the program it basically works, I mean it works for about 2 mintues and then when I try to open multi webpages using Firefox it sease to transfer data from server and connections seem to loss, What I'm guessing is that when multiple connections ( more than 12 local simultaneous connections) are connected to WodTunnel program it just can't handle it completely, So may you help me on this?

Thanks in advance

Hi Michael,

I just try this out and it worked for me without any problem.

I'm using wodSSHTunnel SOCKS proxy in VS 2010. After SOCKS proxy is started I open 20 FireFox connections and check connections after 5 minutes and they worked without any problem.

Here is sample I'm using:
http://example.weonlydo.com/index.asp?did=SOCKS+proxy+over+SSH

Can you maybe try something like this on your side?

If problem persist which version of wodSSHTunnel you are using? How can we duplicate your problem?

Let us know how it goes.

Hi,

And thanks for the good support, I have tested it using both ( activex and lib),
Running Enviroment: Visual Studio 2010, Windows XP SP3, Firefox, Wood SSHTunnel 1.7.1

I also used Bitvise Tunnelier ( for comparison) and used both of Bitvuse Tunnelier and wodSSHTunnel in Socks mode for downloading below file:

Both download file at the same speed kb/s but whne I used firefox to open web pages the wodSSHTunnel just seems to lose connections or stop transferring ( I have to refresh to compelete loading or simply just loads a blank page).

I have uploaded the C# project below so you can test it in the other side and also if there is any more information needed let me know and I will provide asap

Thanks in advance

Michael,

I'm not sure that I can duplicate this. Can you maybe give us some instruction how to duplicate this problem?

Drazen

Yes surely duplicating the problem is needed to debug the problem and solving it but first may you just compile and run the file that I provided above and let me know if opening multiple tabs just go smoothly? or not?

I will also use some sniffers to analyze the protocol and to know more about the reason that this happens

Michael,

Yes, I tried your sample, and it works flawlessly. However, is User disconnected from channel, or connection to SSH Server is closed?

If component gets disconnected, then perhaps it's an auto-disconnection from server that occurs when connection is left idle for some time? Can you try setting Timeout property to 0? This should prevent component from timing out.
