Please see my previous posting regarding problems with forwarding ports using ssh2. I am trying to forward ports from a machine outside my firewall to a machine inside the firewall using ssh2. I found that I *can* forward non-priviledged ports just fine. According to the documentation, root can forward priviledged ports. I still can not do this, even though I log in as root. I can forward ports > 1024, but not < 1024. Somehow, even though I'm being authenticated as root for login purposes, I'm not being authenticated for port forwarding. I've made keys for both the client and server machines for root. Anyone have any ideas where to look for this authentication problem? I particularly want to forward port 80, so this is a real hangup! -- Jim Durham To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
