Re: unable to ssh login into reverse ssh tunnel

[Kyle Hamilton]

This is not an SSH support list.

That being said, you need to set EnableRootLogin on in your sshd.conf
file.  You also need to ensure that at least one public key on the
home machine's authorized_keys file matches the secret key on your
work machine.

You need to find the "Portable OpenSSH" mailing list for additional assistance.
