[Fab-user] Running a fabric script over a SOCKS proxy?

[James Turnbull]

I have a SOCKS proxy setup to a gateway server which is created by setting up a 
host definition in myssh_config to use DynamicForward localhost:9876. To 
connect with SSH to the remote server I've setup another host definition to use 
ProxyCommand /usr/bin/nc -x localhost:9876 %h %pwhich is all working fine.

However my fabric script needs to connect to that remote server. How can I tell 
it to use the SOCKS proxy when it connects?

Thanks,

James
