Not in the configuration I proposed: the first ssh command runs the second to connect to the server so you'd end up with TCP connections client -> server:22 and server ->server:1023 and an end-to-end ssh connection from the client to the sshd on port 1023. > ssh admin@127.0.0.1 -p 1023 should work.

Looking at the debug log I think it might be a bug in sshd. The log says it's 6.6, which is a few years old. Is it an unmodified version built from the source from openssh.com, and does the current release (7.4) do the same thing? -- Darren Tucker (dtucker at zip.com.au) GPG key 11EAA6FA / A86E 3E07 5B19 5880 E860 37F4 9357 ECEF 11EA A6FA (new) Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience usually comes from bad judgement. _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
