Not quite. You should be making your ssh connection to bar; that's the only
way SSH is going to be able to forward anything to bar. E.g.,
foo% ssh -L 1234:bar:21 bar
Then, if you ftp to localhost 1234 you might get it to work. But it may
not work anyway, because you may have to use PASV mode and your ftp client
or server might not support that. There are several issues involved, but
at least try the above first.
