Hi,
I was told by the ssh.com support folks that this list might be able to help
me out. I've got two Solaris 2.6 machines which I'm trying to set up port
forwarding between. I'm using an ssh 1.2.26 client, port forwarded to an ssh
2.1 daemon with ssh1 compatibility mode on. We're forwarding a local port on
the client side to a web server on the other side.
Here's the problem, the tunnel seems to get set up alright, but when we try
to connect to the web server via the forwarded port, the connection is
immediately shut down. When I telnet to the forwarded port, instead of
waiting for a command, the session immediately bails with the "Connection
closed by forgien host." message.
The catch is that I am able to port forward to this machine from other boxes
using the same version cleint and it works just fine. We're not using tcp
wrappers or anything, however the router acls between the problem machines
are pretty restricted.
Anyone seen this before? Any ideas what would be closing down the port right
away? Any help is appreciated.
Brian
