I thought -L was for the other forwarding.. for example:
mail.blackavar.com listens on port 25
I want the box I'm SSHing from to listen on port 25
so I do:
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] -L 25:blackavar.com:25
which is slightly different than:
pop.paul.com listens on port 110
I want the box I'm sshing -to- to listen on 110 and
connect me with pop.paul.com
so I do:
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] -R 110:pop.paul.com:110
The difference is -L listens on the box you're running ssh on and -R
listens on the box you're sshing to.. at least, that's my understanding..
