Putty port forwarding
Hello,
I love your software. We are evaluating it for our tech-team at the moment and we are trying out alle
our current connections.
We do have many RDP and Teamviewer-connections as well as a bundle of putty-connections.
Those putty-connections all have port-forwarding included.
As long as we choose the connection from a saved putty profile, all ports are forwarded correctly.
When we try to save the connection parameters into the RDM-Database (which we would prefer !)
we cannot forward more than one port as the forwardings get scrambled in putty.
Can you point us to the correct syntax which has to be applied in the port forwarding field in RDM
to forward multiple ports ?
Best regards and thanks for this great piece of software

Hi,
I will try to help you, but I must admit that I'm not a putty power user. When you use the parameters, RDM call directly putty.exe and all the parameters are formatted in command line parameters

This is the description of all the available command line. I use the -L option but I'm not sure if it's possible to add more than one port fowarding. Usually you set the field like this :
5110:popserver.example.com:110
but you can try to something like that to inject the second fowarding
5110:popserver.example.com:110 -L 5555:popserver.example2.com:111
Let me know if it's work, I will allow more fowarding in the UI

Thanks for your reply.
It works great with the injection.
Perhaps you should simply rename the input box and link to the putty FAQ, that would make things a bit clearer.

Hi,
Excellent, I think that I will do something better, I will allow more than one port fowarding in the UI, what do you think ? The injection was only a hack, but I glad that it works.
Have a nice day
