     Scenario:

         A------B-----<Internet>-----C-----D

     If I am on B and execute:

ssh C -g -L 6000:D:6000

     Then I can connect to B:6000 from A and reach D:6000

     However, If I am on C and execute:

ssh B -g -R 6000:D:6000

     I should be able to do the same thing: connect to B:6000 from A
and reach D:6000.  However, I cannot.  If I look at netstat -ant on B,
I see:

tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:6000          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN =
    =20

     The '-g' flag is getting ignore for '-R', but it works for '-L'.
Am I doing something wrong?
