Greetings,
After trying out some different things with my code and looking at other
people's code, I found that the problem was cause by my call to
session.setPortForwardingL(localPort, remoteHost, remotePort);
I had the remote system's hostname as the 2nd argument. I changed this
to '127.0.0.1' and it seems like it is working fine now.
Thanks,
Andre
