Hi
i have just installed whonix after reading most of the documentation. I want to use putty as ssh client with the following structure
workstation->VPN->tor
First of all i use VPN on host machine.
Must i configure putty in proxy settings or whonix does the job for me?
Can i use local port forwarding in putty ( use 2 putty terminals) like this
workstation->VPN->tor->port forward for the second putty terminal?
Thanks

Set outgoing proxy settings is optional for better stream isolation.

Whonix doesn’t limit this.
like this

Terminology is ambiguous. Please use the same terminology for the
connection scheme as on
Combining Tunnels with Tor to prevent
misunderstandings.
Thanks for your quick reply.
workstation->VPN->tor-> "port forward"
I setup the first putty client to do local port forwarding ( -L 10000 10.20.30.40:22 for example) , and then use a second putty terminal for connecting to IP 10.20.30.40 using localhost:10000 .
So if i have undestood correctly i use putty as i did in windows without any changes (in proxy setting).
Can i use mysql gui clients or ftp client without also changing any proxy settings?
Thanks

USER → VPN → TOR → SSH → INTERNET is certainly possible.

Should be mostly work as per
Free Support for Whonix.
FTP is limited due to Tor. See
FTP · Wiki · Legacy / Trac · GitLab for
