Hello all, Seems I'm a bit brain dead this morning, and I'm having difficulty remembering how to set up an ssh tunnel to our development server through the public facing system
I can ssh into pub1 just fine, and from that shell I can ssh into the development server, dev1. What I want to do is to be able to open a terminal on my local machine and connect my psql client directly to that development server, on it's port 5432. So I want to be able to locally run a command similar to: [me@mymachine]$ psql -U dbusername -h dev1 -p xxx where, if I remember correctly, xxx is the port I tunnel into the public system on. I know I've done this before, but since I rarely work from home like this I've forgotten the steps. Would someone care to enlighten me? On a related note, how do I kill the tunnel after I am done with it. I've just killed the process in the past, but I'm wondering if there is not a more elegant way? On a totally unrelated note, I have two old Compaq DL-580 G1s and a few 9GB drives that can go with them. Would any of that be of any value to the Debian project? If so, feel free to point me to a contact person. An off-list reply is perfectly fine. Thanks, Nelson
