I'm looking for a solution which works with the commands 'ssh', 'ifconfig' and 'route'. Any ideas? hmm, has anyone done an IP-tunnel (GRE) with this?
I’m looking for a solution which works with the commands ’ssh’, ‘ifconfig’ and ‘route’.
Any ideas?

You can then do a lot of things with this dynamic feature, like use it for your web browsing or IM. well, I believe the other dynamic forwarding feature is more useful. ssh -D 8080 @, you literally set up a SOCKS5 proxy at port 8080 one your local computer, which then transfers data in the secure channel to your remote host, then to the entire world.

As a fed up m$ admin and linux newcomer, it is refreshing to participate in the open community. Thanks for the clear and concise explanation for accessing hosts other than the ssh server on a subnet.

If the remote machine is behind the firewall, then you are at the mercy of the network administrator whether he (or she) allows you to open the particular port at the firewall so your SSH process can listen to the login request. Otherwise, the instructions in this article will not work. All instructions in this article is only good if your the remote machine is not behind the firewall.

Hence, if you want the windows from the other machine on your local desktop, just peek for the X11 forwarding and use that, donnot re-invent the wheel by forwarding port 6000 manually.
