I'm new to port forwarding, and I thought I had it down. Apparently I haven't got it quite yet. Now that I can use my Linux box at work to connect to our MS SQL Server database using dbbrowser (thanks, Philip!) I'm trying to figure out how to get to that server from home over port 22 via an intermediary host. Graphically, the setup looks like this: ME <---port 22---> Linux Server (FC2) <--- 1433 ---> SQL Server I had administrative privileges on the Linux server in the middle, and SSH access to it from home. 1433 is insecure and requires no authentication, but the database needs a login. That's fine. I've used the FC2 computer to connect to port 139 on a Solaris computer so that I can mount a remote Samba share on my home computer via SSH, but I can't suss out how to do it this time. Any hints? -- Richard S. Crawford http://www.mossroot.com
