Help needed with SSH port forwarding

[atakacs]

Folks,

I’m trying to build an SSH tunel from my Mac runing OS9 / Mac
SSH 2.1fc3 to an OS X Server 10.2 sever.

My goal is to use the port forwarding feature of SSH to encapsulate AFP into the SSH tunel.

I manage to open the SSH connection with the server (I have the command prompt) and using the command line -L548:myserver.com:548 I was expecting to be able to mount the remote OS X server volumes through AFP.

However this part does not work.

In my session log I see

lsh: User authentication successful.
lsh: Leaving make_lsh_userauth, value of type ssh_connection.
lsh: Entering forward_remote_port
lsh: command_C
lsh: command_Bp
lsh: remote_listen_command
lsh: Entering forward_local_port
lsh: command_C
lsh: command_C
lsh: command_Bp
lsh: io.c: Listening on fd 10
lsh: Leaving forward_local_port, value of type lsh_fd.
lsh: Installing fix channel open handler for type 'forwarded-tcpip'
lsh: Entering make_start_session
lsh: command_B, f = 2e95fe9c, cf = 2e95fe9c, g = 2e95fe78, cg =
2e95fe78
lsh: Allocated local channel number 0
lsh: Registering local channel 0.
lsh: Garbage collecting while idle...
lsh: Objects alive: 158, garbage collected: 182
lsh: Received debug: Server has disabled port forwarding.

this very last line sounds like I have a config problem with my server but I’m not too sure to understand what’s wrong…

So any help would be appreciated

My ssh config is as follows

# The strategy used for options in the default sshd_config shipped with
# OpenSSH is to specify options with their default value where
# possible, but leave them commented.  Uncommented options change a
# default value.
