Re: [hobbit] hobbitfetch with Windows clients

[Daniel Bourque <dbourque (at) weatherdata.com>]

I have lots of customer systems in that same situation, instead of using 
hobbitfecth, I use ssh tunnels and configure hobbit clients to connect 
to localhost.


on the hobbit server, you can setup something running from inittab that 
does:

ssh user (at) clienthost  -T -n -N -g -x -R1984:localhost:1984

So if the client connects to localhost:1984, it's connecting to the 
server's hobbit port.
