Also you should note that this brings up a normal ssh connection - if
you close it, the forward connection closes as well. So I forexample
set up a forward by using:
ssh -f -l username -L 110:sluf:110 sluf sleep 2d
Which will ask for passphrase on the foreground, then background
itself and run the sleep program which will sleep for 2 days (GNU
sleep understands 2d, you may need to spell it out).
Also, this might be OpenSSH specific, since I don't remember seeing it
before, the "-g" option is required to allow connections to locally
forwarded ports (such as this, -L) from remote hosts. I do not know if
this is needed in your case or even if it exists in SSH.
