I noticed a few insecure hotspots in some of my favorite coffee shops so I went looking for a solution.
my plan is to install shadowproxy on my freeNAS inside a jail and then connect to it from insecure WiFi locations with my MacBook and my Android phone. Sounds doable but I am confused as to how to do this.
I found these two links explaining how to setup:
http://www.freshports.org/net/shadowsocks-libev/
https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks-libev
basically it amounts to:
cd /usr/ports/net/shadowsocks-libev/&& make install clean
pkg install net/shadowsocks-libev
Edit your config.json file. By default, it's located in /usr/local/etc/shadowsocks-libevTo enable shadowsocks-libev, add the following
rc variable to your /etc/rc.conf file.
shadowsocks_libev_enable="YES"
Start the shadowsocks server:
service shadowsocks_libev start
So after doing all this and editing my /usr/local/etc/shadowsocks-libev/config.json to this:
{
"server":"127.0.0.1",
"server_port":8388,
"local_port":1080,
"password":"mypass",
"timeout":60,
"method":"aes-256-cfb"
}
I am now stuck. I added the server with its myname.noip.me dynamic DNS name inside the config og the shadowsocks GUI on my MAC but if I set it to autoproxy I cannot connect to the internet anymore.
Am I doing anything wrong here? I'm sure I am just mixing up the ports and stuff, any help would be very welcome!
P.S. I have forwarded the port 8388 on my router to this jail port 8388.
