I've just set up a new 10.04 server and can't get the tunneling to work.

local machine

> ssh -L 9090:localhost:9090 [email protected]

login success, but thereafter trying tunnel from local browser, http://127.0.0.1:9090

echo at server terminal:

channel 3: open failed: connect failed: Connection refused

auth.log sshd[24502]: error: connect_to localhost port 9090: failed.

iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination

Trying 9090 at server (links http://xx.xxx.xx.xx:9090 works)

sshd_config is identical to previous 8.04 server, working fine.

What's going on? Thankful for any input.

Regards,
