There’s no need to add myservername:X as destination, that parameter isn’t used for dynamic port forwarding.

In FireFox, don’t forget to go to about:config and set network.proxy.socks_remote_dns to true. Otherwise, DNS will leak out of the proxy, and some places may use DNS servers to enforce blocking of sites.

Great run through! Worked first time for me. Also decided to name it and save it as a “saved session” so I can just click and go.

I wrote a similar article using cygwin (or any command line style ssh) here :
