Trying to log in with ssh -D localhost:1234 your.server.address.here

How do I find out my bitlbee server address? I am running it locally

[dequis]

That command is to create a tunnel to be able to use a web browser in your local computer using the connection of a remote server. If the server isn't remote, you don't need tunnels. You just use the web browser directly.

What error are you getting?

[garciaErick]

It is because I cannot get bitlbee to work it matches with the last section of the documentation.
@root | facebook - Login error: User must verify their account on www.facebook.com (405)

Even though I verify on facebook it wont let me log in. So I tried to do the following: Firefox: Preferences->Advanced->Network->Connection) select Socks5 proxy with host localhost and port 1234 as specified in the section. But when I change those settings in my firefox I cannot access any webpage. It says "The proxy server is refusing connections"

I remember I set this up a few years ago and I loved it, I am trying to go back please help :(

I've managed with one of

ssh -D localhost:1234 irc.domain.com -p 1234 -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa -l user -E $HOME/ssh_log
ssh -L 1234:facebook.com:80 [email protected]:1234 -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa
ssh [email protected]:1234 -L 1234:facebook.com:80
ssh -D -E $HOME/ssh_log 1234:facebook.com:80 173.249.14.240 -p 1234 -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa -l user &

and then forcing Chrome via browser add-on to connect via proxy, but I've been stuck in an endless loop of "your account is temporarily disabled, is this really you?" - "yes" - "okay, but your account is temporarily-.." on the other browser.

Anyone has an idea how I get this working again? :D

I also am stuck in this loop even after disabling 2fa and login verifications, etc. It's as though they've blacklisted something about my server or bitlbee.
