[Bug 3133] New: Dynamically Assigned Ports for DynamicForward and LocalForward
https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3133 Bug ID: 3133 Summary: Dynamically Assigned Ports for DynamicForward and LocalForward Product: Portable OpenSSH Version: 8.2p1 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 Component: ssh Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org Reporter: cmirchandani at msn.com The RemoteForward option allows a port to be dynamically assigned if 0 is entered as the port number. It would be helpful if the ssh client could do the same for DynamicForwards and LocalForwards. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.

[Bug 3133] Dynamically Assigned Ports for DynamicForward and LocalForward
https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3133 Norman Rasmussen <norman at rasmussen.co.za> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |norman at rasmussen.co.za --- Comment #1 from Norman Rasmussen <norman at rasmussen.co.za> --- +1. RemoteForward has had the ability to dynamically allocate the listening port since bz#1003, but LocalForward doesn't currently support it. I'd like to be able to do something like: $ ssh -MNf remote $ port=$(ssh -O forward -L 0:localhost:1234 remote) $ client localhost:$port without having to do a "localport=$(( 32000 + $RANDOM )); ssh -L $localport:localhost:1234 && break" loop, or something similar. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.
