How to use - -- - SOCKS - -- - Proxy ?

[AntiGravityLazer]

Hi , I want to use the SOCKs proxy on my IPAD 3.

I went to: Settings > General > Network > Wifi and I wrote my Server address and Username/password but it didn't work.

Is there ANY other way to use SOCKs on Ipad 3 ?

I've found this page that talks about .PAC file:

Mohammad M. Ramezanpour | How to use SOCKS proxy in an iOS device

Has anyone made a .PAC file to use like this before?

I'm glad I'm not the only one trying to figure this out. I know this is an old thread, but it doesn't look like anyone has ever given a clear answer on this. I'd like to use SSH from my iPad (let's say from local coffee shop) and connect to my home PC. Then tunnel my browser (in my case, iCab) thru that SSH connection using a SOCKS proxy. Has anyone been successful at accomplishing this, and if so, how?

I know you can do it with VPN - however, I have reasons for wanting to do it thru SSH & SOCKS. People have been doing this for years with Firefox (Geek to Live: Encrypt your web browsing session (with an SSH SOCKS proxy)). Is it possible with an iPad?
