Did you restart the SSH daemon? ssh -L 2222:localhost:22 eric@e-server.loc Does that work? Can you then ssh to port 2222 on your desktop? ssh -p 2222 localhost On e-server, can you telnet to port 4243? telnet localhost 4243 ciao, der.hans -- # http://www.LuftHans.com/ http://www.LuftHans.com/Classes/ # Molotov Bible - religion thrown at other people in order to cause an # explosive situation - der.hans
