I'm having some difficulty creating a working remote port which forwards to my local machine.
Settings on putty: R8080 127.0.0.1:8080
I selected the option that says "remote ports accept connections from other hosts."
I'm using openssh 4.5 on the server. Connection is SSH2.
Putty event log tells me that the forwarding is successful.
However, I am unable to connect to my machine using server_ip:8080. The connection could not be made.
netstat -ln:
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:8080 0.0.0.0: LISTEN
tcp 0 0 ::1:8080 ::: LISTEN
...
A simple wget 127.0.0.1:8080 connects to my host, so the problem must be server-side? I am root, if that helps any.. any suggestions?
