Simple SSH Tunnel in Java [closed]

Answer 1

You can do this with several libraries. My favorite is the ssh library inside MindTerm package,

You can open a tunneled connection like this,

  SSHSocketFactory fact = new SSHSocketFactory(sshHost, sshPort, new SSHPasswordAuthenticator(sshUser, sshPassword));

  sock = fact.createSocket(host, port);

Answer 2

Well, as pointed out in the other question, JSch is indeed a great choice and has several examples here. The PortForwardingL.java class might be a good starting point.
