Re: fetchmail and port forwarding
Ok, I'm ready for the next step. I've set up Public Key Authentication and
have installed "keychain" and set it up (and added it to .bash_profile and
made it quiet). I can now ssh to the server without having to enter a
password (it sort of creeps me out that I can do it, but I'm sure I'll get
over it).
Now I need to figure out how to do this:
ssh -L 8025:localhost:25 home.samurai.com
at some random point when the computer is started IF an internet
connection is available AND in the background (i.e. no open windows).
