| 601 views |

        To connect to a specific port on a machine inside of an internal network via a different machine that can access it and has SSH enabled.

ssh -C -L [port]:[internal hostname of machine]:[port] [public machine]


Then use whatever program to connect to 127.0.0.1, which SSH will forward on to the proper host.

Common ports include:
3389 for Microsoft Remote Desktop/Terminal Services
22 for SSH
