What exactly do you do in putty that you want to be able to do on linux ?

Because a normal ssh connection is just

ssh <hostname>

If the ssh server runs on a different port than 22 then You can connect by entering:
ssh -p 222 user @ domain.pl where "222" is the port number.

Okay you are talking about port forwarding this is how you do it

ssh -L 3128 localhost:3128 <ip_address_of_squid>


Or add this to your .ssh/config

Host squid_server
Hostname <squid_ip>
Localforward 3128 localhost:3128


Then ssh squid_server

Then configure your web browser to use proxy 127.0.0.1 port 3128

You can connect from a different terminal if you want if the port is already forwarded ssh will ignore the forward.
