This is richly kind of you!
I Imagine the experience will be comparative. Your using Dosbox, instead
of my computer running ms Dos 7.1 as its on system.
ssh2d386 is part of a package called sshdos.
it consists of several programs, there is an updated edition with more
current keys.
You are correct, my Linux box will share my studio with me.
And, I dare say your syntax is correct too.
Still, I suppose I was hoping to substitute a name for that IP address.
Although, in case I need to secure one of my own, does one buy the right
to use one exclusively?

Sorry, now I'm groping in the dark. I found my DOS: it is called DOSbox. Not
sure how relevant this is to what you have. I'm still interested in helping
what I can here, I enjoy finding answers to hard questions. Just giving you a
heads up that this DOS thing is uncharted territory for me.
I will read up on ssh2d386 to see where that takes me.
I expect for example, if your debian box had ip address 192.168.1.21 then you
would ssh into it like so:
ssh2d386 -B klewellen 192.168.1.21
But as I said, that is my expectation... now I need to try it and prove
myself right or wrong.
