How can I use SSH with a SOCKS 5 proxy?

I have a SOCKS5 proxy set up through PuTTY with port 7777 configured as a dynamic port. I can use firefox/filezilla/etc by configuring them to use a SOCKS proxy with localhost and port 7777. But I can't figure out how to ssh (through Cygwin) to a remote server by using the dynamic port. Is this possible?
I've tried using ProxyCommand via the following method.
Create
~/.ssh/configwith the following line:
ProxyCommand /usr/bin/nc -X connect -x 127.0.0.1:7777 %h %p
- Run ssh -p22 user@remotehost
The message I get is ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
linux proxy ssh cygwin socks

To make a program whuch does not support SOCKS go through SOCKS, you can use a so-called proxifer; see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_proxifiers . In particular, I recommand my open source tun2socks proxifer ( code.google.com/p/badvpn/wiki/tun2socks ).

Thanks for the comment Ambroz. I need it to work in cygwin, and I see from the wikipedia page on proxifiers that all of the ones it mentions are either not implemented in cygwin or not applicable. Is there a way to get a proxifier to work in cygwin?

you don't need it to specifically support Cygwin. Cygwin programs are in the end just Windows programs, but with a POSIX interface implemented as a library. If a proxifier works on Windows, it should be able to proxify Cygwin programs just fine.

You are using 'connect' for HTTPS as your proxy version, this is from man nc:
-X proxy_version Requests that nc should use the specified protocol when talking to the proxy server. Supported protocols are ''4'' (SOCKS v.4), ''5'' (SOCKS v.5) and 'connect' (HTTPS proxy). If the protocol is not specified, SOCKS version 5 is used.
So you should use the following to use SOCKS 5:
ProxyCommand /usr/bin/nc -X 5 -x 127.0.0.1:7777 %h %p
Or simply:
ProxyCommand /usr/bin/nc -x 127.0.0.1:7777 %h %p
I hope it helps.
Thanks Saman, that worked! Also, thanks for the explanation, it helps.

TheProxyCommandmust be the first line of your~/.ssh/config', or else nested inside a specifyHost` section. Not really sure why. It doesn't work if it's the last line in the~/.ssh/config
– Aaron McDaid
Jul 14 '16 at 19:21
@AaronMcDaid: Fromman ssh_config: "For each parameter, the first obtained value will be used." Therefore... global settings need to be before anyHostsections. The last line of~/.ssh/configis part of the finalHostsection.

tsocks (http://tsocks.sourceforge.net/) is a nice wrapper that uses LD_PRELOAD to make any program use SOCKS proxy transparently:
tsocks ssh example.com
Just works, remember to configure SOCKS proxy IP in /etc/tsocks.conf

this following command will do, to just use nc.
ssh examplehost.com -o "ProxyCommand=nc --proxy localhost:7000 %h %p"
default is http proxy, there is an http proxy running on port 7000.

@ChrisF it is the same as accepted solution, but it is one-liner! No need to modify any config file.

This is the nmap
ncat program (comes via apt install nmap on APT systems like Ubuntu and Debian), which is different from netcat (be it netcat-openbsd or Hobbit's netcat-traditional).– Adam Katz

@suspectus related to @Adam Katz comment, the
proxy-type is socks4 because the nmap ncat program didn't support sock5 until more recently. Indeed, this is an issue even now (Nov 2017), as RHEL 7/Centos 7 switched to the nmap package but used an older build that does not support socks5– Randall

tsocks (http://tsocks.sourceforge.net/) is a nice wrapper that uses LD_PRELOAD to make any program use SOCKS proxy transparently:
tsocks ssh example.com
Just works, remember to configure SOCKS proxy IP in /etc/tsocks.conf

this following command will do, to just use nc.
ssh examplehost.com -o "ProxyCommand=nc --proxy localhost:7000 %h %p"
default is http proxy, there is an http proxy running on port 7000.

To make a program whuch does not support SOCKS go through SOCKS, you can use a so-called proxifer; see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_proxifiers . In particular, I recommand my open source tun2socks proxifer ( code.google.com/p/badvpn/wiki/tun2socks ).

Thanks for the comment Ambroz. I need it to work in cygwin, and I see from the wikipedia page on proxifiers that all of the ones it mentions are either not implemented in cygwin or not applicable. Is there a way to get a proxifier to work in cygwin?

you don't need it to specifically support Cygwin. Cygwin programs are in the end just Windows programs, but with a POSIX interface implemented as a library. If a proxifier works on Windows, it should be able to proxify Cygwin programs just fine.
