------- Additional Comments From djm at mindrot.org  2005-05-13 07:42 -------
OpenSSH 4.0 can specify which address it binds to for port-forwardings, but
automatically binding to the entire 127/8 would be incorrect behaviour (and
probably impossible).

If you have 4.0, you can do:

ssh -L127.0.0.2:2426:mail.fsf.net:25 -N adam at mail.fsf.net

which should do what you want.
