We have a GUI for this too.
If this tip is of interest to you, take a look at www.afp548.com/vapor. This is a GUI for doing the SSH forwarding. While it doesn't have built-in support for Timbuktu yet, you have to specify that the remote port is 407, I should have a new version out the beginning of next week that has a nice pulldown menu for Timbuktu, smtp, pop, imap, smb, etc.

It's funny this should appear now. I've spent most of the day trying to get ftp to work through ssh. I need to use Dreamweaver's ability to post web pages to the defined site. I figured I should be able to do this by port forwarding 21 with ssh but it won't work. I guess it has to do with the two port issue. Is there some way to work around this?

Agreed on the two port issue for Vapor. Until Joel has time to further enhance that fine app, you can take a cue from his tip sheet and do a double port forward through Terminal and it should work (I believe); at least it works fine for apps like Carracho which run on dual ports.

Correction on that dual port forwarding for FTP... after reading up and testing it out, it doesn't work.

The problem is that I don't think you can know the other port beforehand. When you issue the ftp PASV (passive) command I think it returns the ports it's going to use. There is an SSH command -D that sets up dynamic forwarding. The man pages aren't very clear as to what it's used for except for SOCKS. This seems like it would be the kind of thing necessary as it would recognize that it is ftp and forward the ports accordingly. |
