Tunneler And Stones Mac OS
Creating SSH tunnels using a Windows PC with Putty SSH client is easy but what happens if you are using an Apple computer with Mac OS X. Well that is also just as easy, I documented step by step instructions for Mac users to establish a SSH tunnel between Mac OS X and a remote Linux server.
1. Before we do anything let’s get a baseline and see what our public ip address is. Start by opening up a web browser, I chose to use Opera for this test. Go to http://whatismyip.org which will display the public ip address your computer is broadcasting on the internet.
How to Fix Rosetta Stone Error #1141 on Mac OSThis a short video I made cause of an error i got with the Rosetta Stone. I know many others also have this err. Detailed walkthrough. The quest begins when once entering the cave. During your journey, The Courier will encounter many tunnelers and the tunneler queen.The quest ends when upon entering the Boxwood Hotel roof. Beware when approaching the end of the cave, as when the player character passes under the large archway the tunneler queen and at least 4 tunnelers of varying types will appear.
Next how to get an SSH tunnel setup using the built-in Mac terminal CLI.
2. Now that we have a baseline it is time to establish the SSH tunnel with your server. You will need the hostname or ip address, username and password for your remote Linux server. Once you have that use the following command from the terminal, ssh -N – D “username”@”ip-address or hostname”. This example is using port 22 to SSH into the server but you could use the “-p” option to specify any port for SSH.
After you enter in your password the prompt will just sit there and not do anything, don’t worry that is what its supposed to do. Also this “open failed: connect failed: Connection timed out” error may show up which is normal and expected, just continue to the next step.
3. The next step is to configure a web browser to use the remote Linux server as a SOCKS proxy so to do this open your web browser and enter the preferences menu. Again I am using Opera for this example but you could use any browser, Chrome, Firefox, etc.
4. In the preferences menu go to the network options, then look for a “Proxy Servers” setting button.
5. In the proxy servers menu you will need to configure the SOCKS server using ip address 127.0.0.1 and the port you used above in step 2, so in my case it is 8080. Click OK to save the settings change and close out of the preferences menu.
6. Now back in the browser go to http://whatismyip.org again and this time it will display the broadcast public ip address of the remote network where the Linux server is and this confirms the tunnel is working.
Now the tunnel is up the remote network web interfaces are available to your browser by their private ip addresses. So for example you could log into your remote firewall’s web interface from its private interface, such as 192.168.1.1. If you want to disconnect the tunnel just go to the terminal window with the ssh -N -D command running and use “control + C” to stop the command which will terminate the tunnel.

Stone Design Ships Stone Studio(tm) for Mac OS X
San Francisco, March 21, 2001 – Stone Design today announced availability
of Stone Studio(tm) – seven applications built to support Mac OS X, Apple’s
next generation operating system. The suite features Create(r) and
PhotoToWeb(r).
According to Stone Design’s CEO, Andrew Stone, these applications come with
free licenses valid through May 15th, 2001. “These last few months have
allowed us to really polish our applications with the Aqua look and feel.
We’ve lowered our prices and our applications are freely accessible to Mac
OS X early adopters. Download them today and give them a trial, and you’ll
experience the 100% pure OS X and Stoneware advantage! If you like the
apps, you can buy them online at the Stone Store at our attractively low
introductory prices.”
“With state-of-the-art technology throughout, including a new Quartz 2D
graphics engine and open GL for spectacular 3D graphics, Mac OS X is an
ideal platform for the creative community,” said Clent Richardson, Apple’s
vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations. “Stone Studio is a
complete set of tools that creative professionals will appreciate, and we
are thrilled to see Stone Design’s continued commitment to Mac OS X.”
Stone Studio includes applications to do graphic design with page layout
and web publishing features, manage digital photos, track time and bill
clients, and produce PDF from PostScript files. The following applications
are included:
Create 10.1 for Mac OS X is a draw and layout application built on the idea
that everything is an object. Patterns, blends, effects, art, and pages can
be dragged and dropped to create multipage documents. Features include web
page authoring, instant graphic conversion, autotracing, animation,
multiple document master pages, patterns, neon, and special graphics and
text effects.
PhotoToWeb 1.2.4 manages digital photographs and produces websites from
albums of images. It can produce thumbnails, do slide shows, and annotate,
crop, rotate and scale images to produce configurable web sites. Users can
set the background and navigation bars and can save album styles for future
use.
SliceAndDice 2.3.5 lets the user easily create navigation bars, Javascript
rollovers, image maps, and complicated mosaic tilings from any image. It
features full control over image production and produces easy to read and
modify HTML. By dragging SliceAndDice files into Create, the user can
create complex web pages with image maps and rollovers.
PStill 1.7 converts EPS/PS and other conforming PostScript to the Portable
Document Format (PDF). Its EPS filter allows viewing EPS directly on Mac OS
X in any application as antialiased PDF. The user has complete control over
many conversion options, such as embedding partial fonts.
PackUpAndGo 2.0 creates compressed archive files (.tar.gz & .tar.Z) from
dragged in files and folders. With many user preferences, this application
puts a graphical user interface on some Unix commands, making it easy for
the user to create compressed backups or prepare folders for mailing.
Version 2.0 introduces automatic unpacking of compressed files and folders.
TimeEqualsMoney 1.3.3 tracks time spent for clients, and produces invoices
and reports automatically. It lets users document their work by associating
files with each work session. TimeEqualsMoney was formerly known as
“TimeCard.”
GIFfun 3.0 creates web animations quickly and easily, using drag and drop
technology. The source code to GIFfun is also available online. V. 3.0 uses
the latest version of whirlgif and adds more conversion options.
All applications come with fully searchable online help documents.

CEO Stone notes, “The true power of OS X shows when you use the apps
together. Use Create to make images, drag them into SliceAndDice, create a
Javascript rollover, drag it back into Create, and generate a web page
complete with rollover graphics. Use GIFfun to create animated graphics
that can be placed in Create documents. Even TimeEqualsMoney can use
dragged in images from Create to add a logo to your invoices.” Stone adds,
“With OS X, our apps can work with other applications. Drag images from
your web browser into Create. Drag images from Create into Mail. It’s all
seamless.”
The entire suite is available via CD or easily installed downloadable image
files now. Stone Studio, which contains over $1200 worth of software, is
available now for $299 through May 31, 2001, at the Stone Store at
www.stone.com.
