Created attachment 2636 [details] bug fix from original mail (updated to recent snapshot) I cannot forward to a socket on the remote host ("No forward host name."). Example: ssh -L 12345:/tmp/sock from original bug report by Jared Yanovich that includes a patch: http://marc.info/?t=140753044000002&r=1&w=2
AFAIK this patch was committed and released in openssh-6.9
