create a script /etc/init.d/sshtunnel - use /etc/init.d/skeleton as a template.  Amend the script to do the startproc ssh -R 4444:localhost:22 user@server. Then use insserv to get the script inserted into the init-sequence. I would probably use runlevel 3.

I've done this numerous times, always works.

Well, I've followed the suggestions, which are much appreciated, and still did not get an automatic ssh connection (I would have to manually *start* it).

Does it require any sort of user inter-action to start? A password or some such?  If not, I really don't see why it doesn't start.  Never mind, you've got it to work anyway.

As a matter of completeness, I will add that I have set up the ssh connection to not require a password (authentication key). Thanks a lot for your help, Per.
