Is it possible to use iptables on kobo?
I want to proxify connections from my device and the first thing I need is some iptables configs. |

The Kobo kernel didn't used to support iptables iirc but of course things can change. Shouldn't take very long to figure out though?

Bypassing Internet restrictions (in my case even Kobo servers are blocked!)

Qt5 *should* honor the http_proxy env var, but that may not be enough to cover all bases, and/or it might actually be ignored if Nickel does some funky non-standard stuff (and will require patching the init script to export it before Nickel starts).

I found a built-in config setting: [General] -> proxyUrl. It takes a normal protocol://host:port proxy address (it supports SOCKS/HTTP/HTTPS).

It partially works, store loads well but sync stucks at connecting or checking... and finally fails.
BTW I was looking for a way to proxify other apps like Ultimate Manga Reader. It seems that http_proxy=socks5h:// does the trick, but the app can't handle it. I will discuss it with the devs. Is there anyway to set environment variables with kobo start menu? I tried using a shell script with export... but it doesn't retain the variables (they are deleted after script execution.) I want to see if nickel does work with http_proxy ? Thank you for your helps. |

Hey thanks for all your work on this stuff.
I recently decided to modernize the tools on my kobo. Unfortunately I have some problems. SSH over Wifi works great. But when I try to SSH over usb using the usbnet script I get an no matching cyfer found error. Any idea what is the cause of this? |

Are you sure you're setting up the interface properly on your end? That vaguely looks like you're attempting to connect to a completely different machine .
(The sshd is the same, there's no reason it'd work over wifi but not usbnet ). |
