Quoting Jay Kline <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: | I have been trying to set up ssh tunneling for my POP accounts, and have had | | no success as of yet.
What is the utility of using this kind of "precommand" ? If I am right, you are trying to connect to a pop/ssl account, and kmail already knows howto do that. Just create a pop account and set the 'security' options. | On KDE3 I can use the precommand | | ssh -f -x -L1100:127.0.0.1:110 [EMAIL PROTECTED] "sleep 15 && exit" Take a look at the -N option of ssh BTW if you really want a tunnel you should try stunnel | with the host field set to localhost and port to 1100. And that works great | | (the sleep is to allow enough time for KMail to open the connection before it | | closes). But when I try the same thing on KDE2.2.2 (Kmail 1.3.2) it fails, | | saying it cannot connect to localhost. Is this a bug in the older Kmail | clients or is the behavior different? Does anyone know if Kmail's precommand | | requires an interactive session or if backgrounding ssh is the proper thing | | to do? | | Jay | Hope this helps, Pierre ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
