OpenSSH_4.7p1, reverse shell

[Hayder Mouhammed]

Bob,

I appreciate your speedy response and your suggestions. The netstat showing
all the information was very helpful. I noticed something and I'm just
curious if you have any information. Machine C is running OpenSSH v3.7 and A
& B are running v4.7. If I switch the scenario and use A as the destination,
I have to use a -P instead of -p. However with the first method, using v4.7
as starting point, I have to use a -p instead of -P. Was their a change in
case between the versions?? Many thanks once again.
