Answer CAPTCHA from server's IP
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
|
||||
With a SSH tunnel we can send requests from server's IP and solve a CAPTCHA that
|
||||
blocks requests from this IP. If your SearXNG instance is hosted at
|
||||
``example.org`` and your login is ``user`` you can setup a proxy simply by
|
||||
:man:`ssh`:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: bash
|
||||
|
||||
# SOCKS server: socks://127.0.0.1:8080
|
||||
|
||||
$ ssh -q -N -D 8080 user@example.org
|
||||
|
||||
The ``socks://localhost:8080`` from above can be tested by:
|
||||
|
||||
.. tabs::
|
||||
|
||||
.. group-tab:: server's IP
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: bash
|
||||
|
||||
$ curl -x socks://127.0.0.1:8080 http://ipecho.net/plain
|
||||
n.n.n.n
|
||||
|
||||
.. group-tab:: desktop's IP
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: bash
|
||||
|
||||
$ curl http://ipecho.net/plain
|
||||
x.x.x.x
|
||||
|
||||
In the settings of the WEB browser open the *"Network Settings"* and setup a
|
||||
proxy on ``SOCKS5 127.0.0.1:8080`` (see screenshot below). In the WEB browser
|
||||
check the IP from the server is used:
|
||||
|
||||
- http://ipecho.net/plain
|
||||
|
||||
Now open the search engine that blocks requests from your server's IP. If you
|
||||
have `issues with the qwant engine
|
||||
<https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/2011#issuecomment-1553317619>`__,
|
||||
solve the CAPTCHA from `qwant.com <https://www.qwant.com/>`__.

.. admonition:: :man:`ssh` manual:
|
||||
|
||||
-D [bind_address:]port
|
||||
Specifies a local “dynamic” application-level port forwarding. This works
|
||||
by allocating a socket to listen to port on the local side .. Whenever a
|
||||
connection is made to this port, the connection is forwarded over the
|
||||
secure channel, and the application protocol is then used to determine
|
||||
where to connect to from the remote machine .. ssh will act as a SOCKS
|
||||
server ..
|
||||
|
||||
-N
|
||||
Do not execute a remote command. This is useful for just forwarding ports.
