I need to access the IEEE xplore, but I don't have right to download out of institute.

I can login into the server of institute via ssh,

so How can I access IEEE xplore through institute server via ssh?

I have searched solutions, some one answer:

ssh -L 8080:localhost:80 user@remoteserver

and then he says:

Now, point your local browser to localhost:8080. It should be forwarded to localhost:80 in the remote server.###
But I still don't know how to configure my laptop,Im using chrome.

I appreciate your help very much!

First Method:

Launch an SSH tunnel

To initiate your SSH tunnel, simply open terminal and connect to your remote server via SSH with the following flags:

ssh -D 8080 -C -N [email protected]

Browse the Web with Your SSH Tunnel (Chrome)

Now, let’s start browsing the web using our new SSH tunnel.

Open Google Chrome

Select the wrench icon on the top right

Select ‘Settings’

Select ‘Show advanced settings…’

Select ‘Change proxy settings…’

Select ‘SOCKS Proxy’

Enter ’127.0.0.1′

Enter port ’8080′

Save changes by selecting ‘OK’

Search Google for ‘my ip’ and take a look at what your IP address is now.

This will launch our SSH tunnel on port 8080 and route all traffic (securely) through the server at example.com.

Exiting the SSH Tunnel

To exit the SSH tunnel, simply disable the SOCKS proxy within your browser.

Second Method:

You can do it easily using Shellinabox

Ensure that you have checked Universe Repository

To install

 $ sudo apt-get install openssl shellinabox

Configuring Shellinabox

By default, shellinaboxd listens on TCP port 4200 on localhost.During installation a new self-signed SSL certificate automatically created under “/var/lib/shellinabox” to use HTTPS protocol.

$ sudo vi /etc/default/shellinabox



# specify the IP address of a destination SSH server

SHELLINABOX_ARGS="--o-beep -s /:SSH:172.16.25.125"



# if you want to restrict access to shellinaboxd from localhost only

SHELLINABOX_ARGS="--o-beep -s /:SSH:172.16.25.125 --localhost-only"

NB: replace the ip 172.16.25.125 with yours

Starting Shellinabox

Once you’ve done with the configuration, you can start the service

$ sudo service shellinaboxd start

Verify Shellinabox

Now let’s verify whether Shellinabox is running on port 4200 using “netstat” command.

$ sudo netstat -nap | grep shellinabox

or

# netstat -nap | grep shellinabox



tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:4200            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      12274/shellinaboxd

Now open up your web browser, and navigate to 'https://"Your-IP-Adress:6175"'. You should be able to see a web-based SSH terminal. Login using your username and password and you should be presented with your shell prompt.
