The SOCKS Proxy component consists of two processes:
The Tectia SOCKS Proxy process that needs to be running before transparent tunneling connections can be made. The process can be started under USS, or by using a JCL script or started task.
For more information on the command-line options of ssh-socks-proxy,
see the description of ssh-broker-g3 in Appendix
Command-Line Tools of Tectia Server 6.3 for IBM z/OS User Manual.
(Running ssh-socks-proxy will actually run ssh-broker-g3
in the SOCKS Proxy mode, using the ssh-socks-proxyconfig.xml configuration files
and with connection caching disabled.)
Control process for the SOCKS Proxy. It can be used, for example, to view the status of the SOCKS Proxy, to reconfigure or stop the SOCKS Proxy, or to load private keys to memory.
For more information on the ssh-socks-proxy-ctl options and commands, see the description of ssh-broker-ctl in Appendix Command-Line Tools of Tectia Server 6.3 for IBM z/OS User Manual.
In addition to the processes, there is an init script for re/starting and stopping the ssh-socks-proxy process:
> /opt/tectia/etc/init.d/ssh-socks-proxy
The script takes commands start, restart, stop and version. For example to force the SOCKS Proxy to stop, run:
> /opt/tectia/etc/init.d/ssh-socks-proxy stop
Once the script is defined in the JCL procedure for SSHSP (see
Running ssh-socks-proxy as a Started Task), you can also run it
with operator commands. For example to query the version of the SOCKS Proxy, you
can run command:
== > s SSHSP, f=version
Note that if you want error messages to be logged to the console, in addition to stdout,
you must set the environment variable SSH_MVS_CONSOLE=YES in either
the environment that the SOCKS proxy command is issued, if running it from the USS shell, or
the data set allocated to the SSHENV DD
in the JCL for the SOCKS proxy started task.
