G'day, I've volunteered to do some data entry for my local bike club. This involves a java application (jar file) and a tunnel to a mysql server. I have detailed PuTTY configuration instructions but haven't yet succeeded in converting them to ssh options.
The configuration options include: Seconds between keepalives -- 120 Don't start a shell or command Forwarded port: source port number - PORT Destionation: MACHINE.DOMAIN.COM Host - IP_Address Login - userid Password - pw Using "ssh -N userid@IP_Address" gives me a password prompt and no command prompt - both good. How do I specify the forwarded port? Thank you. David
