Running tunneling applet on Linux

Many users requested client tunneling functionality on computing platforms other than Windows. So far, our solution was kind of wimpy: run tunneling client on a pc and connect to it from Linux or Mac. Now, that our tunneling client can run as an applet it is java's multiplatform capability that solves the multiplatform issue for client tunneling.
We completed testing of the new tunneling applet on Linux. It ran in Mozilla Firefox with Sun Java plugin, no glitches during successful tunnelling for several hours.

Some useful links:

Tunneling applet urls:

Browser-based tunneling applet


The weak spot of our main tunneling client - socks2http is
configuration. It requires you to enter proxy server,
proxy credentials, gateway configuration, etc.
In order to avoid configuration and installation as well
we have developed browser-based tunneling applet that only
requires you to enter user id. This makes tunneling literally
one click away. Here are 2 url for tunneling applets. We suggest to use first url,
if it is blocked then use second:
Applet1
Applet2
