moin moin,
First off, obviously, don't trust Gerald, he is likely trying to sabatage
Ladmo.

I believe that builds a connection from localhost on your system to
localhost on the remote box tranversing the network stack to the external
IP address on the remote box.

If you use localhost or 127.0.0.1 on the ssh tunnel, you can keep rtl_tcp
on localhost only as well if the ssh tunnel is the only thing that
connects to it.

What IP address to Ladmo think Ladmo has? Is it now connecting to
127.0.0.1 rather than the external IP?
For a local tunnel ( -L ), the hostname between the ports is resolved
by the remote system, so the remote part of the tunnel connected to
whatever IP Ladmo resolves for its own hostname.
This also allows creating tunnels that talk to an entirely different host.
$ ssh
user@ladmo.asuscomm.com -L 1234:phxlinux.org:443
Using that tunnel on one of my test systems allowed me talk to the PLUG
web server over the tunnel. Getting TLS correct for such a tunnel can be a
pain.
