Tunnelling apps through ssh on smartphone?

I have a smartphone (Dash) which I use on T-Mobile (USA).
So I've been able to use zaTunnel to set up a ssh connection between my dash (via wap.voicestream.com) and my ssh server. I've set up a few tunnels.
But for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to configure apps to use these tunnels.
For example, how to make Opera Mini work through this tunnel? Google Maps?
Yes, I am aware of the epc workaround, but I'd like to figure our this other method as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Judging from the zaTunnel screenshots/documentation, you can only tunnel 1 port at a time. What you would need to do is run a HTTP proxy on your "ssh server" and tunnel that port through, and then point your applications to the new port. (IP of 127.0.0.1, with a port of whatever you put)
But why do that? If you have your settings correct, Opera Mini and Google Maps should work without any tunneling, because T-Mo's web proxy will let that traffic through.

You mean, using wap.voicestream.com, with proxy 216.155.165.50:8080, Google Maps and Opera Mini will work? I thought I tried that and found it didn't work.
Actually, ZATunnel allows you to set up as many port forwards as you want, but all through a single ssh connection.

dont use your providers proxy
set up your http proxy on your server at the end of the tunnel and have it listen on a port - eg. 8080
setup a tunnel from 8080 to 8080
then configure your proxy in the app to use proxy 127.0.0.1:8080

Yes, thanks for the reply. But is exactly that last step that I do not understand how to do. Howe do you configure the proxy "in the app"? For example, how do you specify a proxy for Google Maps or Opera Mini?

does authentified proxy works under Donuts

Hi,
I am tempted to load a Cyanogen on my Magic to get benefits from Donuts at work.
In fact, work wifi network is based on WPA2 Enterprise wifi for the network and ntml proxy for internet.
I used Wifi Helper in order to configure a WPA2 access. Networks gives me an IP adress but I think there is a certificate that I don't have on my Magic. Perhaps Donuts' certicate storage will help. I hope so
My question is "does Donuts allow the use of an authentified proxy?"
I tried:
inserting proxy setting in database in Sqllite
using proxysetting from google project which in fact does not work with authentification and looks not to be maintained
using anycut but it says "error in the format of proxy adress" when you try to introduce user and password.
Donuts introduce WPA2, VPN. I hope that it allow authentified proxy. Is it just hope?
Thanks by advance for your attention and your help

Am I the only one with this problem?

HTTP proxy on 3G, possible?

Hello
I'm trying to get an HTTP proxy working while on 3G on my phone. I've tried pretty much every proxy app I could find and I've tried adding the proxy IP and port to the 3G settings as well, no luck.
The proxy uses username/password authentication, I think that's what's causing the issues.
If anybody successfully set up HTTP proxy on their DHD, please enlighten me

I tried your suggestion, but it didn't work. My friend who have a different rom from froyo(2.2.1) use wifi smoothly.
