OK, I see. "The key values are the same as for the Cygwin tunnel, so no repetition is needed." is wrong. The values should be repeated.
# Port: 2401 (remote and local) # Username: tunnel # Remote Hostname: openoffice.org # Local Hostname: localhost
Aha! That's probably the missing info I needed and had no idea how to even ask about.
You also said,
My experience is that the only problem is that people try to connect using the tunnel before their key is uploaded to the server causing the attemt to connect to fail (and any action tried after that failed
Don't you know why that happens? It's because the "General commands for tunneling" section on the page of instructions is BEFORE "Step 3, Submitting your (certificate) public key". People will generally follow the steps in order down the page of instructions. Of course they are going to do them out of order if they are provided out of order.
