You can accomplish this using a config file in the _client_ host, ie: user@client ~ # cat .ssh/config Host remotehost Localforward 20000 localhost:20000 # ssh remotehost (connect to port 20000 on clienthost and your connections will be crypted :-)) HTH -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
