Hi there,

I'm trying to run a ssh tunnel through an internal ip and out through an
external IP on another device. Here's my current command line:

ssh -D 1080 margo@192.168.1.10

192.168.1.10 is set up as so:

eth0: 192.168.1.10 (internal, sshd)
eth1: ext.ext.ext.ext (external IP, no services running)

Is there any way to ssh in through eth0 and direct all traffic tunneled
through to eth1? I've looked through the man page and can't see a way to
specify output address or interface.

Thanks!

Hi all. I know that I can initiate ssh tunneling from system A to
connect a process from local system A to the remote system B.

A$ ssh -L 999:B:999 -l user -N B

But what I need to do is have A setup a tunnel that would allow a
process on B to be able to connect to A. I need this because A is
connected through a router with a locally assigned ip as is B, but on
separate routers. I need to be able to ssh into A from B, but AFAIK
there's no way to be able to contact A from B, because all that is
known from the outside is the router's ip & I do not have access to
A's router to be able to enable port forwarding.

Hopefully I've explained this properly. Is this even possible? tx

When I try to execute the remote command (cleartool setview ####) from
windows using Putty the same works fine.But when the same is executed
via plink it never responds and waits indefinitely.
If the view name is incorrect then, the error message is thrown, but
not for the correct view name.
Any idea how to overcome this problem?

Thanks

Does anyone know how to check the default SSH data receive rate in
windows and Unix.
thanks

I'd like to make PuTTY log "SSH packets" to putty.log (Session-

(Connection->SSH) via the command line. Any ideas as to how I might
do that?

All,

I've been writing an SSH client for fun and learning, and I've noticed
that my (OpenSSH) server sends "\r" characters after every 80 characters
of output. How can I have my client set the row and column size? I
would like to do this dynamically when the window is resized as well.
Are there any limitations to the row and column size values?

Thanks,
Dan

Hi,

For some reason, I can only access computer A through computer B. That
is, suppose my computer is C, I can ssh to B from C, but I can not ssh
to A from C. Once I login computer B, I can ssh to A from B.

I'm wondering how to use port forwarding on B such that I can scp from
A to C. Otherwise, I'll have to scp files from A to B and then B to C,
which is too annoying.

Would you please let me know the command so that I can scp A to C
without creating any temporary files on B?

Thanks,
Peng

Usually the user uses "nohup" for two purposes when entering a command:

The command should not block the terminal and secondly the command should
continue to run even when the user logs out.

When I put now a command in the cronfile and start the crontab then using a nohup
seems to me not necessary because no terminal is blocked and the command is performde as service.

Is this view correct?

Or are there any scenarios when I should use nohup in crontab commands anyway?

This is not to mean there isn't some use somewhere for this feature. But I
thought I would be able to use it. Turns out I can't. Any alternatives?

According to TFM:
LocalCommand
Specifies a command to execute on the local machine after suc-
cessfully connecting to the server. The command string extends
to the end of the line, and is executed with /bin/sh. This
directive is ignored unless PermitLocalCommand has been enabled.

What it doesn't say is that the SSH connection, though established, cannot be
used by that local command being executed.

What I am trying to do:

I want a script to be able to start an SSH process, with a command line
specified port forwarding directive (usually -L, but maybe -D), and then
run a command that makes use of that port forwarding. Then I want SSH to
clean up and take down the whole session when the command is done.

I want to exclude some files from being synced with rsync. I have to exclude them with
the --exclude option but with or without wirldcards?

In other words should I write:

rsync .... --exclude=/home/mylog* ....

or just:

rsync .... --exclude=/home/mylog ....

when I want to exclude all the files:

/home/mylog05
/home/mylog04
/home/mylog03

The manual for rsync does not give this information
