Re: [leaf-user] Does dropbear support port forwarding?

2004-07-25 Thread Matt Johnston
I've fixed a couple of bugs in Dropbear's port-forwarding since version 0.41,
you might be hitting one of them. Version 0.43 might be worth trying? (I think
K.P. has put a package at
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/mod.php?mod=userpagemenu=91017page_id=51 ).  Let
me know how it goes, if that doesn't help, we can go bug-hunting.

 netstat -a shows the server listening and the

 up there?

[leaf-user] Does dropbear support port forwarding?

Ooops! I meant to say that I have already added a rule
to shorewall to allow port 22 conections from fw to

Re: [leaf-user] Does dropbear support port forwarding?

2004-07-23 Thread M Lu
Sorry that I cannot help but FYI I also got trouble with port-forwarding
with dropbear. I used it to Remote-Terminal to Win2K server and IIRC I could
go into the login screen but then things stopped. Switching back to SSHD and
everything worked. However it was about half a year ago and later versions
of dropbear may fix that.
