#2 Re: Forwarding remote X via telnet? Posted by ineiti (81.221.xx.xx) on Wed 14 Dec 2005 at 22:57 Hi, I once had a similar problem: I wanted to connect to a computer behind a firewall that blocks everything... Here is what I did: SSH-relay Now, if I understood you correctly, "remotehost" will be your own box, and "Dad's comp" is the computer behind the firewall. You need a sshd running on the computer behind the firewall! Then you: sarge_1# telnet behind_firewall behind_firewall# ssh -R 10020:localhost:22 user@sarge In a new window on sarge, type: sarge_2# ssh -X -p 10020 user@localhost Now you can use this sarge_2 session for running everything that needs X!
