I'm new to port forwarding, and I thought I had it down. Apparently I haven't
got it quite yet.
Now that I can use my Linux box at work to connect to our MS SQL Server
database using dbbrowser, I'm trying to figure out how to get to that server
from home over port 22 via an intermediary host.
I have my server at home set to check my e-mail using fetchmail every five
minutes. When it generates an error, the error message is sent to my

I received this error message a few minutes ago. It scares me; should I be
