Hi Igore, Thanks for your reply. Yes, this is OpenSSH, and it's not working because everytime I try to actually access it via using whatever port I am trying to tunnel, I get the following. channel 1: open failed: connect failed: Connection refused Take care, Sina -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Igor Gueths Sent: Monday, October 24, 2005 4:57 PM To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. Subject: Re: ssh forwarding question -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi. By 'its not working', what errors/what makes you determine the fact that it's not working? The configuration you have supplied should work; the only thing I think may be throwing the whole thing off is your -f option...I'm not sure how authentication is handled when that option is used since I've never tried it. Also, I assume you are using the Openssh version of Ssh? The above assumes yes. Hth.
