Hello, I have read the ssh man page and am not getting the results I think I should. some background: serverA is the client serverB is running sendmail on port 25 I want to telnet to serverA on port 34 and get a response from the sendmail daemon running on serverB. I tried this: ssh -L 34:serverB:25 user@serverB ^^^ seems to be what the man page instructs me to do ... But when I run that command, it asks me for a password, and I log into serverB just like any other time I ssh there to log in. So that's that - the above command line does nothing but log me into serverB. If I port scan serverA, nothing is running on port 34. So basically it's a total bust. I am running this ssh command on serverA as root. So what am i doing wrong ? Thanx!
