I have successfully followed the instructions at the NEC socks site to
socksify openssh. I did it as follows:
- Compile and install libsocks
- Configure openssh as normal
- Edit Makefile and change CFLAGS to include -DSOCKS,
change LIBS to include -lsocks5
- Edit config.h and add #include <socks.h>
Each compilation unit will complain that certain functions are being
redefined, but the end result will work through socks using the file
/etc/libsocks5.conf as reference. Since runsocks does not exist for AIX I
have found this the easiet and quickest way to get socks support.
Best wishes,
