The problem is that you are redirecting to port 22. Port 22 is the
sshd port. It is not set up to be a web proxy. What you need to do
is run a web proxy on port X on that machine and then redirect to
-L 8888:build2:X instead.
I guess the real question is: what was running on port 23 of otto?
Were they perhaps running a web proxy there instead of telnetd?
