Hello,
I have a question that's rather theoretical than technical. I need to forward a
privileged local port (80). As described in the ssh's manuall page, I need to
run my ssh client as root. Can you tell me your opinion about security of such
solution? What's the probability that somebody tries to attack a system thru a
ssh client and will be succesfull (I mean compared to attacks thru a sshd
(server) if it makes some differents)? Is such solution advisable for
communication thru the Internet?
