Hi Steffen,

Thanks for the patch, though I'm not sure it's worth adding this as a special 
case - can't the same thing be
achieved with dbclient -J "nc localhost port" ?

Adding proxycommand as a -o option might be worthwhile though, so it can pass 
to scp.

Cheers,
Matt

Oh I hadn't seen the ProxyUseFdPass option. I'll put it on the todo list for 
the next release.

Cheers,
