I'm having the following problem trying to ssh through a reverse ssh tunnel.
>From home, I want to log into my work computer which is behind a firewall. So on my work computer, I log into my home computer like so:
ssh -R 7071:127.0.0.1:22 -p 22 user@home_ip_address
That should make my home computer listen on port 7071. So from home I should be able to log into the work computer like so:
ssh localhost -p 7071 -v
Unfortunately it gives the following error:
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Applying options for localhost
debug1: Applying options for *
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 33: Deprecated option "RhostsAuthentication"

debug1: Connecting to localhost [127.0.0.1] port 7071.

debug1: identity file /root/.ssh/id_rsa type -1

Is there a way to get this working by running SSH in a less secure mode or anything?
