Hi. Trying to setup a quick test to create a ssh tunnel between A and B, and running a test nc server over the ssh connection on port 7100.. As far as I can tell, it should be a matter of setting up the port forwarding between A and B and then running the test server/client on the A and B machines.. now, the tricky part, the target "B" machine is being run on a VM, so the port isn't 22.. I used the following to setup the port forwarding: ssh -L 7100:74.142.196.218:7100 user@74.142.196.218 -p 50122 so being on machine A, the local machine, I setup the ssh tunnel into machine B, where B is the VM, running ssh over port 50122 this part appears to work. However, when I then run a test nc server on both machines using port 7100, I get the following: machine B: nc -l 7100 machine A nc localhost 7100 which causes the machine B to display a crash!!!! >>>channel 3: open failed: connect failed: Connection refused <<< any ideas/thoughts??? I'm ultimately looking to run a gearman server running on port X and being able to create a ssh tunnel into the server to access the port. thanks -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
