RE: port forwarding

Rajendra,

I think you have your port forwarding command wrong. The last term of your
command should be the name of the server.

Subject: port forwarding

hi,

     I tried this small experiment with port forwarding. I am
running sshterm on clt client and open-ssh on
  srv-y. I used portforwarding to forward the local port 2005 on
srv to localhost:22 on it. Then from
clt i tried to connect to srv:2005. But a message comes connection
refused. However I tried connecting
  from a srv itself on port 2005. I could doit without any
problem. I tried portforwarding using
command option " ssh -L 2005:localhost:22 localhost " still i
could not connect from clt to srv. However
I could log on to the ssh srv from clt by connecting to srv:22.
         What wrong was I trying to do? Why are the connections to
srv:2005 not forwarded to srv:22
when the requests are from other systems? Is there any way out?
Please help me.

best regards,
rajen.
