Yeah, that either of those sound like what I'll have to do. I tried the ssh tunnel, but it didn't seem to have much effect: ssh -L 80:web2py.mydomain.com:8080 lo...@dreamhost.com ssh -L 8080:localhost:80 lo...@dreamhost.com [and various other permutations] I then tried going to localhost:8080 and got nada
Clearly my shellFu is not up to snuff but I would think one of my guesses would have worked. I guess I'll just cripple the security, since it's not exactly a big deal if my testing site gets hacked anyway.
