Uber Mega Overkill alert, batman!
running 4 ssh sessions is not what I am looking for, and I doubt that it is what the other poster was looking for either. Personally, I specifically do /not/ want to have to then re-ssh back from the local box to the remote. Your setup looks like it would work quite nicely, but would incur the overhead of at least two ssh sessions simultaneously encrypting and multiplexing data.
Thanx though. :-)

I'm very intreagued by your abuse of screen. You've solved (in a rather obtuse way) a dilema I've had for a while! How to reverse ssh! :-D

Hehe, My coleagues also think that I am a bit nutty :) - always trying to ask hard questions, solve atypical situations. We are mostly M$ shop here, but also have a couple of people, who prefer to work on Linux. Me - I'm just starting to discover it... Step by step - a bit of cygwin at work, dual boot to Win/Lin at home :)
What I've noticed, that even among the current Linux users the old and glorious tty lore is often forgotten, or not understood enough. The GUI is rampant everywhere ;). Thats why I'm fascinated with screen. Its like the old antiquity, archeologic artefact from ancient times, long forgotten lore of commanding text screens, swiss army knife manage the terminals :D
To turn on echo you can just run `stty echo'. :-)Thanks for a tip. Seems like i've haven't read the approriate man page.
Oh well :)
"How to reverse ssh" - interesting, in fact my original formulation
of the question was exactly this!! :D
Only when writting the letter, I've reformulated the question and broken
it into smaller pieces - for better understanding.
In fact I solved this problem by decomposing it into 2 problems. One "to flip over" the console at remote end of the ssh pipe. This is achieved with - exec screen -D -m `tty` The other to attach bash to the local end of the ssh pipe. Here I simply run ssh in screen, and then attach bash as a screen session subprocess - exec ::: /bin/bash
If you want reverse ssh given the settings
local --(ssh)--> intermediate --(ssh)--> remote
and remotehost is heavily firewalled and not allowed to ssh out, you could achieve this with ssh alone:
config: create a ssh rsa key: local: ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa_intermediate
local:~/.ssh/config: host remote Hostname intermediate IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_intermediate ForwardAgent yes ForwardX11 yes RemoteForward 22022 127.0.0.1:22
intermediate:~/.ssh/config: host remote Hostname remote IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_intermediate ForwardAgent yes ForwardX11 yes RemoteForward 2222 127.0.0.1:22022
intermediate:~/.ssh/authorized_keys:
from="local",environment="SSHVIA=1",command="sh -c 'ssh remote ${SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND:-}'" ssh-rsa <insert local:~/.ssh/ id_rsa_intermediate.pub here> [EMAIL PROTECTED]
remote:~/.ssh/config: host local Hostname 127.0.0.1 ForwardX11 yes Port 2222
remote:~/.ssh/authorized_keys:
from="intermediate",environment="SSHVIA=2" ssh-rsa <insert local:~/.ssh/id_rsa_intermediate.pub here> [EMAIL PROTECTED]
executing:
localuser at local: ssh remote
and then
remoteuser at remote: ssh local
This gives remoteuser at remote an ssh-connection to local, tunneled in
reverse through the ssh-connection from local via intermediate to remote
established previously by localuser.
