[vox-tech] Connecting to port 1433 via 22 on an intermediary

[Richard Crawford]

I'm new to port forwarding, and I thought I had it down.  Apparently I haven't 
got it quite yet.

Now that I can use my Linux box at work to connect to our MS SQL Server 
database using dbbrowser, I'm trying to figure out how to get to that server 
from home over port 22 via an intermediary host.  Graphically, the setup 
looks like this:


ME <---port 22---> Linux Server (FC2) <--- 1433 ---> SQL Server (WinNT)


I had administrative privileges on the Linux server in the middle, and SSH 
access to it from home.  1433 is insecure and requires no authentication, but 
the database needs a login (I have those credentials available to me as 
well).  That's fine.  I've used the FC2 computer to connect to port 139 on a 
Solaris computer so that I can mount a remote Samba share on my home computer 
via SSH, but I can't suss out how to do it this time.

Any hints?
