- Subject: cygwin port forwarding
Can non-cygwin applications "see" the ports ssh in cygwin sets up for
forwarding? I did some tests on Windows 7 and found that, although the
forwarding was clearly in effect for commands I ran in the cygwin shell,
it did not seem to be accessible to the regular Windows version of
Thunderbird.
The local port I forwarded was not privileged. I used no Windows admin
privileges.
Thanks for any info.
