Package: openssh-server
Version: 1:5.1p1-7
Severity: wishlist

I'm trying to setup a reverse SSH box (i.e. one where people stuck
behind NAT can SSH in and initiate a tunnel back to their machine).
They use this something like this:

  ssh lo...@box -R 2000:localhost:22

I'm trying to lock this down as far as possible - in particular I'd
like to disable AllowTcpForwarding, however if I do this it prevents
both local _and_ remote tunnels.

Leaving AllowTcpForwarding open and setting "PermitOpen
127.0.0.1:65535" gets close - all the reverse tunnels work, but the
only local tunnel that will work is "ssh lo...@box -L
xxxx:localhost:65535".   

I'd like to use "PermitOpen none" (or just blank) however sshd doesn't
allow this (just checked the source code).

Thanks,

Adrian
