How to make a secure SSH tunnel
This is how you can make a SSH tunnel to an other machine in an other network. This is my situation:
my-local-machine -> my-router -> INTERNET <- remote-router <- remote-local-machine
Syntax:
ssh -g -L [my-local-port]:[remote-local-machine]:[remote-local-port] [username]@[remote-router]
Example:
I do this on my local machine…
ssh -g -L 81:192.168.1.2:80 user@remote.router.wan.ip
Now you can do in your own browser http://localhost:81 and you should
get the webserver on the remote-local-machine from the other network.
This you can do with any local port to any remote port, only remember
that the local port should not be in use allready. This works on all Linux, MacOS-X and Unix systems.
