How do you proxy the SSH connections? I thought you could not do hostname-based proxying with the SSH protocol
pingiun··on FBI tries to unmask owner of archive.is

> Even worse, users can signup on a random server then it can end up on one of the big server blacklists (or get shutdown) and they won’t be able to see or participate in major portions of the network.
