OK, I see. "The key values are the same as for the Cygwin tunnel, so no repetition is needed." is wrong. The values should be repeated.
# Port: 2401 (remote and local) # Username: tunnel # Remote Hostname: openoffice.org # Local Hostname: localhost
Er, ok, but where do I put those values?
I've looked at the PuTTY Configuration pages, and I don't know where these values are supposed to go. (I'm using PuTTY Release 0.56 btw.) I'm assuming the pages under "Connection" are the most logical places, but the field names don't correspond unambiguously to what you've got on the list above, at least not to me. Maybe "Session" for some of them, like Host Name (is that Remove Hostname?) and Port (does 2401 go there?). Help!
On the "Tunnels" page (under SSH, under Connection), there's a place for Source Port and radio buttons for Local, Remote and Dynamic, as well as some other fields including Destination. I'm not sure which (if any) of these correspond to the items in your list above, and none of the others correspond unambiguously with fields on this or other pages. Please help!
I'll cheerfully admit that I'm stupid. And I'm sure it's all blindingly obvious and dead easy once you know the secret, but when writing user documentation, writers must assume that if something can be misunderstood, or not understood, then that will happen.
