These 2 patches add support for port forwarding. Like OpenSSH dropbear support local and remote port forwarding. This is a very neat feature that allows to forward (or tunnel) a listening port from one host to another. There are 2 types of port forwarding: local and remote. The first patch is to avoid the tunnel to hang for ever. The second page adds an init script that parse the dropbear config and run as many port forwarding as found. Port forwarding requires the use of SSH host keys (It can be disabled, but it is not safe). That is the reason /root/.ssh/known_hosts have been added to the list of configuration files. I will send shortly on the luci mailing list an application that allows to manage everything.
If you have any comments, please let me know. _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
