Here is my .ssh/config line:

I thought the LocalForward syntax differed slightly:

LocalForward Localhost:Port RemoteHost:Port

(if I've understood man ssh_config)

so maybe

LocalForward 127.0.0.1:9051 YourRemoteTORRelayHost:9051

May I pass on a security concern? Again, if I understand the man pages correctly, anyone with access to your machine can use this tunnel to reach your TOR relay on port 9051. Using 127.0.0.1 means that 'only' local users can do this, but this would include everyone with a login on your machine (and anyone who could sit in your chair during lunch if you hadn't logged out).
