<div dir="ltr">Hi,<div><br></div><div>I am trying to run a pvserver which is connected to using a client behind a firewall. The firewall blocks everything except ssh going out. Hence I am trying to use pvserver through an ssh tunnel.</div>
<div><br></div><div style>My plan was as follows:</div><div style><br></div><div style>On client (inside firewall):</div><div style>1 - Start paraview</div><div style>2 - Create ssh tunell for port 11111</div><div style>% ssh -nNTR 2223:localhost:11111 me@pvserver-hostname</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>Then on pvserver-hostname start the pvserver, however I get the following </div><div style><br></div><div style><div>% ./bin/pvserver --server-port=2223</div><div>Waiting for client</div><div>
