I try to set up a connection as follows:

ssh -f -N -L 5916:localhost:22 [email protected]
[email protected]'s password:

It asks for a password , but the connection doesn't work.

nmap my.remote.ip -p 5916

Host is up (0.0038s latency).

PORT     STATE  SERVICE
5916/tcp closed unknown

In virtual machine ssh is working:

ssh  [email protected]
[email protected]'s password: 
Welcome to Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS (GNU/Linux 5.15.0-69-generic x86_64)

I have disabled firewall on host for test.

The tunnel work more or less, but only for localhost:

 ssh developer@localhost -p 5916
developer@localhost's password: 
Welcome to Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS (GNU/Linux 5.15.0-69-generic x86_64)

This is the response from the virtual machine.

What am I missing?

Does this answer your question? [Can I use SSH to serve a tunneled resource (HTML page) on a local network?](https://superuser.com/questions/1326962/can-i-use-ssh-to-serve-a-tunneled-resource-html-page-on-a-local-network) – Kamil Maciorowski Apr 11 '23 at 12:20
Note: the title says "remote SSH tunnel", which kinda suggests remote port forwarding; still you used `-L` which is local port forwarding. – Kamil Maciorowski Apr 11 '23 at 12:29
this version works : ssh -g -f -N -L 5915:localhost:22 [email protected] – grek Apr 11 '23 at 17:39
