Through an ssh tunnel, using port-forwarding, I'm guessing?

Can you "psql -p 5432" on the machine on which the server is running?
Here's what I just did successfully:
On local machine, ssh to host running pgsql server:
$ xterm -e ssh -L 57000:remote.example.com:5432 remote.example.com &
After doing the ssh pass-word/-phrase thing...
On local machine:
$ psql -U jseymour -p 57000 -h localhost
Password:
Welcome to psql 7.4.2, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with SQL commands
\? for help on internal slash commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit
jseymour=> \q
$
Worked like a champ. This is using OpenSSH, btw.
