Hi Corinna,

   Thanks for all the consideration you have given this WinSock
problem.  As a suggestion, would it be possible to add an ssh command
line option, so the user could explicitly open the listening port in
exclusive mode.  This would alleviate the problem of trying to second
guess when to use SO_EXCLUSIVEADDRUSE and when to use SO_REUSEADDR.

     For example:
         ssh -L2001:server.com:23  -o "ExclusivePort yes"  server.com

Thanks again

Jon
