I have a ssh connection on a windows box running through putty and all is well. However I'm trying to copy this connection's settings onto to a linux machine, and i'm having difficulties using the openssh config file.
Problem:
In the windows putty GUI i have two SSH tunnels which are both configured as below (not the real port numbers or server name
):
Source Port = "1234"
Destination = "myremoteboxname:1234"
How do i transfer that into my ~/.ssh/config user file?
I so far have the hostname and port i need to connect on. this works fine.
What do i need to add to generate the tunnels?
I cant make head or tail of the manual syntax, and googling hasen't helped either!
could someone please shed some light on the problem
TIA
