SSH Tunneling with Panther Server
Victory is correct. I only had to do this on my server (which is running Panther server), not on my client.
Also, thanks for pointing out the security ramifications of allowing port forwarding. For what it's worth, if you do a man sshd_config, it says this about the AllowTcpForwarding directive: AllowTcpForwarding: Specifies whether TCP forwarding is permitted. The default is ``yes''. Note that disabling TCP forwarding does not improve security unless users are also denied shell access, as they can always install their own forwarders.My server only has accounts for a few trusted friends, and they have limited access rights, so I'm not TOO worried about any of them taking advantage of me or my server. What I found odd is that I did have to explicitly allow port forwarding, even though the man page says it's allowed by default. Maybe Apple changed the defaults, as I know they've done for other things as well. It was kind of annoying though that the default sshd_config file didn't even have AllowTcpForwarding listed so you could at least know what it's currently set to. Strange. |
