I'm working on an on line code generator that's implemented as a 3-tier system. The data passed between the middle and back tiers includes files -- http://webEbenezer.net/build_integration.html . I'm starting to use tunneling to encrypt the messages between the back and middle tiers. It would be helpful to see how others have documented and scripted their use of ssh tunneling with their service. > I'm not sure what version of the OpenSSH server you're running, but on > all the systems I have access to, each new ssh connection only spawns > two new processes: one owned by root and one by the user I > authenticated as: My mistake. I was confused by running everything on one machine. Sorry for the noise. I'm also wondering about restricting the tunneling. I guess it may have to do with the authorized_keys file, but am not sure how to limit what ports are available for tunneling. -- Brian Wood Ebenezer Enterprises http://webEbenezer.net (651) 251-9384 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
