I'm sshing over tor

It's fast, too. :)

Go to http://tsocks.sourceforge.net/download.php, pull down the latest
version (or apt-get it, ports-get it, etc).

./configure, make, make install, make an /etc/tsocks.conf with
  server_port = 9050
  server = 127.0.0.1

Then pull down http://freehaven.net/or/tor-0.0.1.tar.gz and follow the
directions in the README to set it up.

Then "tsocks ssh you at wherever.com".

Dude. :)

[You may have to be root to do this, since tsocks is intercepting some
of the library calls and ssh doesn't like this if it's suid root and
you're not root too.]

[Warning: your machine is still doing a dns lookup of wherever.com. Is
there a good answer out there for redirecting dns requests?]
