Restrict a client port-forward to 1 port

[Adriana Rodean]

Hi,

Thank you so much for the reply :)

Yes that's exactly what i want, restrict certain REMOTE port forward values.
If client X has remote port 1037 on the server then client Y should be
forbidden to do remote port-forwarding on port 1037 if client X is not
connected.
Can't it be restricted somehow with iptables or with some Linux commands?
If ssh can't i'm thinking maybe Linux can...
I mean restrict only client X (which is behind a certain ip address)
to listen to port 1037 on the server.

I'm not Linux user, and have minimal knowledge about Linux, but maybe
someone knows...

Thank you again,
Adriana

I do not think it is possible to place restrictions on REMOTE port forwards if port forwarding is enabled in sshd_config.  In the authorized_keys, you can list 'permitopen' options, but this only applies to LOCAL port forwards.
