That's fine.

With a host in CSIF, and a goal of reaching google, I did the following: $ ssh -L 10000:www.google.com:80 pc10 $ links localhost:10000 and I reached google in Links. I think you can figure out how to change the port numbers to make this work. The key is that you don't connect to port 22 when tunnelling. You connect to a different port on your end (which you have configured) and it wraps it into the ssh connection and sends it to Linux Server. -- I usually have a GPG digital signature included as an attachment.
