I have installed trac bug tracker on a server behind firewall. I can access it through 127.0.0.1:8000 within the server. I am accessing the server using putty. Now, I would like to access the trac site through my machine, however port 8000 is blocked. How do I access the trac site from my machine through port 22.

Thanks!!

  • This question is not clear enough. What does "blocked" mean? Is the server behind a firewall? Behind a router? Is port 22 open? If so, what's listening on port 22? SSH? Are you sure port 8000 is open? What's the public IP of "localhost" / from where do you try to access it? Please do not leave all this to guesses from readers. – Daniel S. Nov 07 '13 at 15:52
  • @DanielS. Hope this clears it up. – user592748 Nov 07 '13 at 15:57

    Question might not be formulated that well - but I think one can understand it... So why the downrating? – Florian Loch Nov 07 '13 at 16:11
  • At first, it was formulated badly. And maybe others think that googling for "putty tunnel" would help more quickly than asking a question here. – Daniel S. Nov 07 '13 at 16:19

    @DanielS. Thanks for the answer. It worked. I wonder why it is deleted. Besides, there is an assumption of prior knowledge of both tunneling and putty to be able to use the precise search strings you suggest. – user592748 Nov 07 '13 at 16:27

Look at this screenshot:

Put in 8000 for the portnumbers and put in localhost instead of mail.tralala.org . That will do it. Then you can connect from your local PC to "localhost:8000" and you will end up connecting to your trac server at port 8000.

Do not forget to click the Add button.
