I do not understand why you need the 2nd (reverse) ssh. You can
forward the home to work and work to home on the initial ssh.
Since I'm forwarding a lot of ports I have it on my ~/.ssh/config like
this (I also connect to one computer at work and work on another):
LocalForward 5910 bsw1:5910 # view LOAD VNC on bsw1
LocalForward 5944 linux:5944 # work on X (VNC) Emacs
RemoteForward 5901 ekc-5:5900 # connect to 2nd Home computer
I'm connecting from ekc-1 (at home ) to linux (at work).
The net nnection is:
ekc-1 |FW| ---(internet)--- |FW| linux
ekc-5 __| |___bsw1___PC___(more)
To work from home (ekc-1 or ekc-5) on my emacs session, I connect to
ekc-1:44, to work on home PC (ekc-5) from my PC at work I connect to
linux:1. So, single ssh should suffice (I also forward telnet and X).
Ehud.
