           Summary: IPv6 local port forward does not work as described in
                    man-page
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 5.6p1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ssh
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: jchadima at redhat.com


Syntax with slashes - as described - does not work:
mfaux at reykjavik ~ % ssh -L '1234/::1/1234' 1.2.3.4
Bad local forwarding specification '1234/::1/1234'

Workaround: Use "enclosing address in square brackets" method: "ssh -L
'1234:[::1]:1234'".
