Guest traffic through SSH Tunnel

[latca]

Would be possible to pass all of the internet traffic through a SSH tunnel to another computer and access the internet through that connection? This would be as a security precaution.

My current setup is guest: Ubuntu 10.04 running on host of OS X 10.6 . Network is on virtual box is setup as NAT.

If it is not possible to pass all traffic through an SSH tunnel what about specific ports?

Thanks in advance.

I, too, would like to know the answer to this question.

Here is the complete solution that works great for me: http://ku1ik.com/2011/11/12/tunnel-vm-network-ssh.html

I found this solution, which, whilst slightly unstable, works rather well so long as you have an endpoint set up with ssh and python:

By "slightly unstable" I mean I have to restart it sometimes, but I managed to get a surprising level of performance out of it, including torrenting at ~1MBps. I can't compare this to torrenting on the same network without tunnelling (because it's banned) but I would say that the network is not particularly fast, so 1MBps is close to maxing it out. (Yes, I mean MB, not Mb!)
