[ tries it ... ] Worksforme, using the stock ssh in OS X 10.4.6.
Maybe you've got the OS X firewall configured to prevent connections to
port 6666? That doesn't seem to be default, because I didn't have to
adjust the firewall for my experiment.
Another possibility is that the ssh daemon on the linux box is
restricted from opening local connections. It wouldn't surprise
me if this is disabled by default by SELinux for instance :-(
