ssh tunnels

Hi,

I have an OpenSSH tunneling problem, any guru's available (I'm a Golum) ??

The problem is this:

serverA <-- firewall <-- serverB --> firewall/NAT --> serverC

The firewalls only allow serverB to ssh to servers A and C, they can't ssh to each other or to serverB

So on serverB I'm trying to establish tunnels from A to B and B to C, it's so an isql session on serverA can access the Sybase database on serverC

The following looks as if it should work, but doesn't - the only sniffer I have is snoop, which can't see loopback traffic. 'netstat -a' shows listeners on the ports on A and B

ServerB:
ssh -l pmutton -N -g -f -R 2052:localhost:2099 serverA
ssh -l pmutton -N -g -f -L 2099:localhost:2052 serverC

I've googled & found examples of just one of the tunnels, but no examples of what I'm trying to do

Am I trying the impossible ??

hello¬I m Joseph..Mu as well lol
i think here is The Coffee Lounge where all the members trying to introduce ourselve and say hi to others.
why not try some other discussion board?

check again Joseph

Off the top of my head, you could try:

Code:

---

ssh -l pmutton -N -f -R 2052:serverC:22 serverA

---

Then on serverA ssh to localhost port 2052. ServerC should then see the traffic as coming from serverB.

Let us know how you get on,

Chris...
