The next picture was used to create a tunnel with mobaxterm:
Does anyone knows the meaning? also, how can I do to translate this into Ubuntu Linux ssh command to create the tunnel specified by the picture?. I need this to connect to my db.
Thx
That looks roughly like
ssh myusername#grv.soccer.cpu.edu -p 7822 -L 1338:172.178.0.12:3338
which basically means: connect to grv.soccer.cpu.edu using username myusername, the server is using port 7822 instead of the default port 22 and, while you are it, put local port 1338 in LISTEN and tunnel-it to port 3338 of server/IP 172.178.0.12; after you've successfully connected to the grv.soccer.cpu.edu you'll have the service running on 172.178.0.12:3338 directly reachable locally on/at 127.0.0.1:1338.

I'm using WinSSHTerm to connect to a proxy, from which I then connect to a server hosting a data warehouse. I just can't figure out how to reproduce my Putty connection using a shell command.
Short recap:
I first connect to the proxy server which maps the port 5432 to my local port 10001. After that, i connect to the database server and map its 5432 port to my proxy's 5432 port, which I previously mapped to my 10001 port locally. I am then able to connect to the databse via a database manager locally.
To do so:
I created the following connection to my proxy server first.
I then added a tunnel from there to my localhost port 10001.
Once I'm logged in to the proxy server, I use the following command to connect to the database server and map its 5432 port to the proxy's 5432 port.
ssh username#databaseServer -L 127.0.0.1:5432:databaseServer:5432
I'd like to leave putty and move to WinSSHterm, predefine some login commands for a specific server.
How may I reproduce the behavior above using a shell command?
Here's my initial try, which is unfortunately not working:
ssh username#databaseServer -L 127.0.0.1:5432:databaseServer:5432
Thank you
I was finally able to find the correct way to write it.
Loginc Cmds
ssh username#databaseServer -L 127.0.0.1:5432:databaseServer:5432
Cmd-line Args
-L 10001:localhost:5432
Im experiencing a problem replicate my putty ssh tunneling with Cmder bash (on windows machine).
1. I want to access web interface on port 7183 on server_2. To get there I have to go through jump_server first and and tunnel twice, as from the jump_server, only visible port is 22.
Steps with putty:
1. connect to jump_server with tunnel (L22 server_2:22) using username_1
2. connect to localhost with tunnel (L7183 localhost:7183) using username_2
After that, Im able to access the web interface when I type localhost:7183 into browser on my local machine.
Now Im trying to reproduce this in Cmder, but I havent been able to do that with one big command, nor 2 separate commands:
ssh -L 7183:localhost:7183 username_1#jump_server ssh -L 22:localhost:22 -N username_2#server_2 -vvv
This is only the last command I used as I tried interchanging ports and hosts without success.
2. Is the syntax different when I want to open port 12345 on my local machine and have it forwarded to port 21050 on server_2 or that would be remote tunneling?
Finally managed to achieve the 1. question with:
ssh username_1#jump_server -L 22:server_2:22 -N -vvv
ssh -L 7183:localhost:7183 username_2#localhost
Now Im albe to access the web interface from server_2 on my localhost:7183
I'm using SSH tunneling for the first time, so I'm trying to understand how to configure it.
I've got a remote Linux server that hosts a MySQL database that I'm trying to connect to. In order to access the MySQL database directly through a software that only recognizes local databases, I suppose SSH tunneling would be the right way to set up the access, correct?
Now, I'm trying to set up the tunneling on my 'home' computer which is running the software that's trying to access the MySQL database. My first question is whether this is reverse tunneling or normal tunneling? Secondly, is it local tunneling or remote tunneling?
Finally, from what I understand, my code is supposed to look something like
ssh -L 8080:mylinuxserver.mycompany.com:22 myuser#mylinuxserver.mycompany.com
Is this correct? Is my source port '22' since I'm using SSH and is my destination port 8080 (or is there something more appropriate)?
When I try to use the above code, I am able to login using my passphrase (since my key is already in the MyLinuxServer) but when I ping localhost:8080, it cannot find the host.
What am I doing wrong?
I've got a remote Linux server that hosts a MySQL database that I'm trying to connect to
The command should be:
ssh -L 8080:localhost:3306 myuser#mylinuxserver.mycompany.com
Where:
8080: is hte local port on your workstation
localhost: is corresponding to mylinuxserver.mycompany.com
3306: the MySQL port on above localhost.
then connect (from your workstation) to MySQL as:
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 --port=8080
Besides, ping localhost:8080 is wrong. Ping cannot work that way.
Try this:
ssh -f ssh_user#mylinuxserver.mycompany.com -L 3307:mysql1.example.com:3306 -N
Next, to access the mysql your trying to connect to:
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 3307
Setup:
My computer (linux / unix) has an arbitrary IP address
I can connect to a central linux server which has a static ip
Remote linux systems are set up so they only respond to central server IP address on port 22
I want to port forward through the central server so I can use MySQLWorkbench and make python scripting connections on port 3306 to the remote systems.
Ideally, I would like the syntax for ssh command to make the port forwarding work;
Suppose I want to forward local port 3307 to 3306 on the remote system. Assume my ip is x.x.x.x, the central server IP is y.y.y.y, and the remote system IP is z.z.z.z;
I think it has something to do with ssh -L but I can only forward to the central server so far. Maybe I need to connect to the central server, set up forwarding there, then set up forwarding on my machine? I think functionality exists to do it with a single command using ssh.
If this is a duplicate, it should not be marked as such because without knowing what magic keyword to search for, you can't find the duplicate;
Clarification: port 3306 is NOT open on the remote server. Only 22
ssh -L :3307:z.z.z.z:3306 user#y.y.y.y -Nf
Works fine
or
ssh -L 3307:z.z.z.z:3306 user#y.y.y.y -Nf
To only bind to x.x.x.x's localhost
The first example binds to all interfaces
edit...
Just seen that z.z.z.z only has port 22 open.
on y.y.y.y you will also need to have a local port open
run on y.y.y.y
ssh -L 3307:localhost:3306 user#z.z.z.z -Nf
then on x.x.x.x
ssh -L 3307:localhost:3307 user#y.y.y.y -Nf
run these commands in a screen for best results
You can actually condense these 2 commands together
ssh -L 3307:localhost:3307 user#y.y.y.y -f 'ssh -L 3307:localhost:3306 user#z.z.z.z -Nf'
ssh -L <local-port-to-listen>:<remote-host>:<remote-port>
The ‘L’ switch indicates that a local port forward is need to be created
Best method is to create the tunnel using putty (ssh client). so you can start the shell, and it will create the ssh tunnel for you. this is a good reference

I need to do some work on a server to which I don't have direct access to. I do have access to my company network (via vpn). If I were on that network, I could access the server directly. But, for some reason when I'm on the vpn, I can't access the server directly.
So, I need to ssh into an intermediary ubuntu box, and then create an ssh tunnel from that box to the server.
Then, I can do my work on my laptop and send it through a local tunnel that points to a foreign tunnel (on my ubuntu box) that goes to the server.
But I don't know how to do a tunnel that creates another tunnel to a third server.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Scott
What are you trying to achieve? If you just want to get to a shell on the server then ssh into the Ubuntu box and then ssh from there to the server.
If you want to access some other network resource on the server then you want to forward a port from the server (where you can't get to it) to the Ubuntu box (where you can). Take a look at the -L option in ssh.
Edit:
Copying files to the server:
tar c path/* | ssh ubuntuName 'ssh serverName "tar x"'
Copying stuff back:
ssh ubuntuName 'ssh serverName "tar c path/*"' | tar x
Obviously you need to change ubuntuName, serverName and path/* to what you want. To use rsync you need the -E option and the same trick of wrapping one ssh command inside another. After reading your comment I'd say that the most general answer to your question is that the trick is making ssh execute a command on the target machine. You do this by specifying the command as an argument after the machine name. If you use ssh as the target command for ssh to execute then you get the two-hop behaviour that you are looking for. Then it is just a matter of playing with quotes until everything is escaped correctly.
It's just a double port forward. Forward the ports from the PC to the ubuntu box, then on the ubuntu box forward those destination ports to the final endpoint. It's been a while since I've done command line ssh (been trapped in windows hell :)), so I can't give the command line you need. Another possibility is to use the SOCKS proxy ability built into SSH.
To connect from your local machine over a second machine to a specific port on the third machine you can use the ssh -N -L option:
ssh -N second_machine -L 8080:third_machine:8082
This maps the Port 8082 on the third machine to port 8080 on the local machine (eg. http://localhost:8080/ ).
