Yes, indirectly. You first need to tunnel some high port on A to port 22 on C, through B: ssh -L 9999:C:22 -fN B And then make your local sftp connect to the forwarded port on A: sftp -oPort=9999 A (replace A by 127.0.0.1, localhost or another alias if it complains about an invalid host key; it's obviously reading it from C, so it won't match a previously stored one) -- Cristian Gutierrez http://www.dcc.uchile.cl/~crgutier [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] "Confucius say: He who play in root, eventually kill tree." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
