Building tunnels for my camera

I bought a silly camera that uses activeX controls and needs ports 80,5000,5001 to function properly

Our wireless network only allows port 80,22 into the CSIR so I had to build some tunnels

On my machine I wrote a script called makecameratunnels

#!/bin/sh

ssh -L 80:meshy:11000 djohnson@meshy
ssh -L 5000:meshy:11001 djohnson@meshy
ssh -L 5001:meshy:11002 djohnson@meshy


On the machine: mechy, I wrote a script called camera-socat

#!/bin/sh

su
socat TCP4-LISTEN:11000,fork,reuseaddr TCP4:146.64.28.13:80 &
socat TCP4-LISTEN:11001,fork,reuseaddr TCP4:146.64.28.13:5000 &
socat TCP4-LISTEN:11002,fork,reuseaddr TCP4:146.64.28.13:5001 &


Then I looged into the camera by opening this site on my webbrowser

http://localhost

An behold all worked!
