Once I allowed tcp port forwarding in sshd_config, this worked brilliantly. Excuse me while I go take the fork out of my eye.

For example:
ssh -2 -N -f -L 6000:cvsup.ca.freebsd.org:5999 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Then you'd simply change your supfile to point to localhost, and possibly use the -p [port] option on the command line to change the port to 6000.
Good luck.
