I want to use ssh tunneling via a proxy server.
So I do (as root) on the tablet

ssh -D80 user@myserver.com

and the I want to set the proxy for the browser to localhost:80 but I cannot set the proxy. I can only set the proxy per connection, which means that the ssh connection also goes over the proxy.

Is there a way that I can only proxy certain ports or with a particular program ?

UPDATE: I found in this thread http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=11294
that I can set a proxy in about:config.
It did work with the same wrong result as setting the connection proxy:
while
ssh -D 80 user@myserver

was open, the browser returned an empty page without error.

Any ideas on this ?
