Package: ssh Version: 1:4.2p1-7 Severity: normal I have this in my .ssh/config:
Host * ControlMaster auto ControlPath /home/oku/.ssh/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:%p This works fine, except when I want to use port forwarding using eg. ssh -C -L 8080:127.0.0.1:80 remotehost when this is not the first connection to remotehost. The local port is not listening: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ netstat -ln|grep 8080 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ However, after terminating all ssh sessions, including the master, and try again, so that this time the port forwarding sessions becomes the master, it works fine: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ netstat -ln|grep 8080 tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:8080 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp6 0 0 ::1:8080 :::* LISTEN [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages ssh depends on: ii openssh-client 1:4.2p1-7 Secure shell client, an rlogin/rsh ii openssh-server 1:4.2p1-7 Secure shell server, an rshd repla ssh recommends no packages. -- debconf information: ssh/insecure_rshd: ssh/ssh2_keys_merged: ssh/user_environment_tell: * ssh/forward_warning: ssh/insecure_telnetd: ssh/new_config: true * ssh/use_old_init_script: true ssh/protocol2_only: true ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen: ssh/run_sshd: true ssh/SUID_client: true * ssh/disable_cr_auth: false -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
