Browsers may explicitly prevent "localhost" from being valid. Have you considered a dynamic SOCKS proxy instead? ssh -D1080 remotehost then configure your browser to use that SOCKS proxy (consider FoxyProxy (for Firefox or for Chrome, which will let you select different proxies based on the target site). Then you just go there in your browser.

Please provide the exact error message you get, including the advanced details offered. Also, from my understanding it fails to work once you run the browser on another system (AWS desktop) - which suggests that the necessary CA is not trusted in the browser running on this system. Note that the browser uses its own root CA store, so you need to check what root CA are installed in the specific browser instance you are using. | |
