hi, After updating from OpenSSH_2.3.0p1 to OpenSSH_2.9.9p2 server (SuSE 7.0) is denying port forwarding requests. I am using TTSSH client utility (win) for connecting to remote mysql server SuSE Linux 7.0 (mysqld listening to inface 127.0.0.1 port 3306). SSH session is established, all works fine, but as soon as I try to connect to forwarded port on my local machine, I see in remote server's logs: debug1: channel 0: new [127.0.0.1] debug1: channel 0: not connected: Connection refused All worked/works fine with OpenSSH_2.3.0p1 version though :-? Tried using sshd_config.rpmnew without any positive result. Could it be mysql misconfiguration or sshd problem? thank you, Andrius
