In this scenario,
Box A - Machine which is reliable
Box B - Machine we need to relay for.
- Use rsa/dsa keys
- Something like this for root authenticated via a public key may
work on Box A.
ssh -C -L 25:Box-B:25 -l root
Then send all data to localhost normally on port 25 on the box B.
Alternatively, to reverse this, i.e. Box A acts as the ssh server and
Box B as the ssh client.
ssh -C -R 25:Box-A:25 -l root
(debug via -v ofcourse).
