SSHNET(4)                                               SSHNET(4)

     NAME
          sshnet - secure tcp port forwarding

     SYNOPSIS
          sshnet [ -m mtpt ] [ -s service ] [ -- ssh-options ] [
          user@]host

     DESCRIPTION
          The SSH protocol allows clients to make outgoing and incom-
          ing TCP calls via the server.  Sshnet establishes an SSH
          connection and, rather than execute a remote command,
          presents the remote server's TCP stack as a network stack
          (see the discussion of TCP in ip(3)) mounted before mtpt
          (default /net), optionally posting a 9P service descriptor
          for the new file system as /srv/service.  All other argu-
          ments are passed to ssh(1) as is.

          For dial(2) operations, name resolution happens on the
          remote side as sshnet serves a mtpt/cs file that passes the
          hostname to the connect dial string.  Other query operations
          are passed verbatim to the original connection service at
          mtpt/cs.
