From man ssh: -L port:host:hostport Specifies that the given port on the local (client) host is to be forwarded to the given host and port on the remote side. This works by allocating a socket to listen to port on the local side, and whenever a connection is made to this port, the connection is forwarded over the secure channel, and a connection is made to host port hostport from the remote machine. Port forwardings can also be specified in the configuration file. Only root can for ward privileged ports. IPv6 addresses can be specified with an alternative syntax: port/host/hostport. sunny@suse:~> rpm -qa | grep openssh openssh-askpass-3.8p1-33 openssh-3.8p1-37.17 What version of openssh do you use?
