[Bug 67488] Re: tunnelling does not work
This bug was fixed in the package putty - 0.60-4 --- putty (0.60-4) unstable; urgency=low * Build-depend on x11proto-core-dev rather than x-dev (thanks, Lintian). * Backport from upstream (r8150, Jacob Nevins; closes: #503186, LP: #67488): - Fix for portfwd-addr-family: on Unix, when a tunnel is specified as "Auto" (rather than IPv4 or IPv6-only; this is the default), try to open up listening sockets on both address families, rather than (unhelpfully) just IPv6. (And don't open one if the other can't be bound, in a nod to CVE-2008-1483.) Based on a patch from Ben A L Jemmett. * Avoid problems with the -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 default on Ubuntu by explicitly ignoring results from a number of calls to read, write, and fwrite. (This is pretty ham-handed and I've asked upstream whether they have any better ideas for any of these.) -- Ubuntu Archive Auto-Sync <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Tue, 18 Nov 2008 10:35:35 + ** Changed in: putty (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Fix Released ** CVE added: http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi- bin/cvename.cgi?name=2008-1483 -- tunnelling does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67488 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 67488] Re: tunnelling does not work
'portfwd-addr-family' is now fixed upstream (as of r8150). It would probably be easy to backport the fix to 0.60, if that's desired. @Stephen Northcutt: PuTTY's Event Log would probably be useful. If you're using the GUI, Ctrl+right-click brings up a menu with it on (and you can copy entries by selecting them); if you're using plink, add the "-v" option. -- tunnelling does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67488 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 67488] Re: tunnelling does not work
We use PuTTY SSH tunnels to connect for email. I am exploring the possibility of using Ubuntu Hardy as an enduser platform. I looked at the workaround above, Explicitly configure PuTTY to use an IPv4 listening socket (change 'Auto' to 'IPv4'). And tried that. I am still getting a Could not connect to localhost: Connection refused error. I can manually log in to the Unix server and type commands on it so the SSH is working. My local ports are 2143 and 2025 and remote are 143 and 25. If there is a logging or debug mode, I am happy to try to provide more detailed information. -- tunnelling does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67488 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I suspect http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/wishlist /portfwd-addr-family.html is behind these reports.

[Bug 67488] Re: tunnelling does not work
I would like to respectfully request this bug be classified as high importance, with the hope that it will be addressed soon. The fact is that Putty is nearly useless without tunneling support, meaning the package is effectively broken. This bug, as identified here, is now well over a year old; and has probably existed since the original package was submitted. Putty is a popular and valuable application, and is well worth the effort to fix it. The package maintainer's consideration will be appreciated. -- tunnelling does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67488 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 67488] Re: tunnelling does not work
I can confirm that this is still a bug in Putty 0.60-1 on Gutsy. One thing that sets Putty apart is its ability to easily tunnel through proxies to connect to a destination. Using the OpenSSH client through an HTTP Proxy, for example, requires the use of corkscrew (a separate package) and special client configuration in ~/.ssh/config. So, without the combination of Putty's ability to tunnel through a proxy, _plus_ it's ability to create tunnels to the destination server, it is of little use to me. :( ** Changed in: putty (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- tunnelling does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67488 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 67488] Re: tunnelling does not work
My testing also indicates tunneling in Putty is broken. This is true of 32-bit 6.06 LTS test system and 64-bit 6.10 test system. Both appear to use Putty 0.58-4 version. I also got Windows version to run on same 6.06 LTS 32-bit test system under Wine. Tunneling is an important feature of Putty. I hope to see it put on the high-priority fix list. -- tunnelling does not work https://launchpad.net/bugs/67488 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
