If you are a Linux or UNIX user, you probably use SSH (Secure Shell) to access the command line on your machines remotely. In addition to providing secure access to shell accounts, SSH can also securely transport other kinds of web traffic as well. In a sense, it can provide you with a quick and easy VPN (Virtual Private Network) into the remote network where your SSH server resi

Yeah, I know”¦ wow, exciting stuff. It’s not something I used to care about either. I remember whenever I heard Microsoft banging on about the gee-whiz search capabilities of Vista I really didn’t care as I was stuck in Win32/XP style navigation; of menus and forms and tabs. Why would I be interested in changing what was already working for

First of all, you will of course need an SSH server running somewhere. Linux and OS X come with SSH servers, but there are also SSH servers available for Windows. freeSSHd is a nice free SSH server for Windows.

If you are looking for a desktop calculator to handle complex mathematical calculations, SpeedCrunch would make a good choice. One thing that it is missing is the lack of a graphing ability for people to plot graphs and perform graphical calculations. Other than that, I have no complaints about this
The source port you use for setting up the tunnels is arbitrary. We could have used 1234 instead of 3390 if we wanted to, as long as nothing is running on the local machine at port 1234.
