11110:127.0.0.1:110 user@remotehost sleep 10; <whatever command
you need to use to get your email> The "-f" makes ssh act
in the background and the "sleep 10" gives the ssh tunnel 10
seconds to actually connect before it bails. The next statement
should execute whatever process you need to execute but note that
you want to execute it against the local host's loopback address,
not the remote system's address. You actually target the remote
system's IP address using the "user@remotehost" section. Tom |
