I am not sure.  The idea is to protect the inner system.  It may be
that a simple port forwarding would accomplish that but I am not sure
I can convince my boss.  If I were to do a simple port forwarding this
bastion machine would only have port 22 open to the outside world and
then a port to the inner system.  A user will not login to it but only
connect to it.  I will look into port forwarding. Thanks

Sorry I have copious debug output but I hesitated to put that in since
I was really looking for pointers to online guides.  I did see lots of
good examples in the man pages and other place all for commands.

I did use -t for the pty.

Thanks, Daniel, this was helpful.  I will go and a mmend something and
if it doesn't work I will send some more details.

Peace,
