Peder Stray <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #6 from Peder Stray <[email protected]> --- Had a look at the code trying to figure out if this was something i could patch myself, but I couldn't find an easy way to get hold of the local host and port for the RemoteForward. Anyway, I would really like some way to get hold of the port-number in a more programmatic way, and in most cases the initial ones set up from the command line is fine, but just having a list of the ports in the same order as the command line parameters is not enough, as this order could be changed by aliases, added to by the config by RemoteForward, and posibly other mans. I, at least, would need to know which port mapped to which host:port on the other side of the tunnel, so an environment variable with all the -R (and RemoteForward) parameters in a list with the 0-ports replaced would be a nice solution. Some way to query the running ssh of all forwards would also be nice, but I guess that is a bit harder to implement than the initial forwards in a list. Another possibility for the initial connections would be to expand the syntax for -R to include a name (in place of the 0-port or some other mean), and then store the allocated port (or the whole R-argument) in an environment variable with that name. Looking forward to seeing the 0-port feature beeing more useful for programmatic use :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching someone on the CC list of the bug.
