Sorry that I cannot help but FYI I also got trouble with port-forwarding with dropbear. I used it to Remote-Terminal to Win2K server and IIRC I could go into the login screen but then things stopped. Switching back to SSHD and everything worked. However it was about half a year ago and later versions of dropbear may fix that.
