Okay, that almost clears things up. One question: for -L w:x:y bit above,
does it matter what x is? for example, you have -L 80:intranet:80. Does
"intranet" map to anything? In actual practice, what would you actually use
there? I see what you are getting at in the example, but what would a simple
case look like? I'm guess this...

sudo ssh -p 5151 -i /user/../mykey -L 80:localhost:80 jim at example.com

I'm guessing we are saying forward local port 80 to remote port 80 and loop
it through remote localhost. Is that correct or would I use something like
"intranet" to specifically avoid looping through localhost?

Thanks.
