I am looking at setting up a VPN using the SSH port forwarding features, but I have a question: I have inetd listening on port X for ppp connections. I set up SSH on the client machine to pass all packets going from port X on the client to port X on the server through the secure channel. After starting ppp, I do netstat -a and realize that the actual ppp connection is taking place on random port Y. My question is, is SSH smart enough to realize this has taken place and encrypt the session on port Y as well? If not, how do I set it up so that the random port picked during the negotiation process is also sent through the secure channel? Thanks. -- Damien Tougas, P.Eng.
