Any ideas?
The address is already in use, probably from another ssh session using
the same local and/or remote port.

On each end you can try this to identify the other ssh session:
     sudo netstat -nap | grep :5900

The last field contains the process name and number.

Nope. It's more likely a bug in the latest Wheezy OpenSSH-client. It's affecting everything I try to connect to when I use local forwarding. Either that or someone introduced a bug into the Squeeze ssh server.

I'm the only person using ssh to connect to these servers (one is my local server in my house).
