[Bug 1661] New: netcat feature

https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1661

Summary: netcat feature
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: -current
Platform: All
OS/Version: OpenBSD
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: ssh
AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs [at] mindrot
ReportedBy: sfandino [at] yahoo


Created an attachment (id=1701)
--> (https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/attachment.cgi?id=1701)
adds new option "-Ghost:port" that is equivalent to running "ssh nc
host port"

The attached patch allows to use ssh as a remote netcat.

A new flag -Ghost:port activates the feature.

For instance:

$ ssh foo.bar.com -Gwww.openssh.org:80

redirects local stdio to www.openssh.org 80 through foo.bar.com

It is equivalent to running

$ ssh nc www.openssh.org 80

but using SSH port forwarding support (and that means that port
forwarding should be allowed on the remote side) instead of a helper
command.

Cheers,

- Salva
