SSH Tunnel

SSH Tunnels and port forwarding

we work on machine1 in net1

and want to connect to machine3/4 in net2

Local

we want m3:80 and m4:81 via m2

ssh myaccount@machine2 -L 9080:machine3:80 -L 9081:machine4:81 -g

we get m3/4 on machine1:9080/9081 (localhost:908...)
because of param -g we can connect from any machine in net1 via machine1:908...

Remote

we cannot connect to machine2, but friend in net2 machine2 can connect to us:
he will initiate connection and establish a remote port forward

ssh myaccount@machine1 -R 9002:machine3:80 -N

we can connect from net1 machine1 via locahost:9002 to machine3:80
we use -N so no other commands can be done on m1 from via machine2

your ssh-port is not 22?
i.e. use option -p 2222 for ssh-port 2222

if connecting over internet you should check the fingerprint of the ssh-key:

ssh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key

or dsa or ecdsa_key
