If your remote computer is sitting behind a firewall, and you need to go through a sshgateway server, you can use a simple multi-hop instead of a tunnel. e.g.
Home_Computer-> SSH_Gateway -> Work_Computer


With plink on the command line:

plink -t -X -A username@SSH_Gateway ssh -X -A username@work_computer 

Or in Putty:

Hostname: SSH_Gateway
Data -> Auto-login username: username (for ssh gateway)
SSH -> Remote Command:

 ssh -x -A username@work_computer

Auth -> Check “Allow agent forwarding” if you are using Pageant
X11 -> Check “Enable X11 forwarding” if you want it.

What the options mean:
-t enable pty allocation (used so you can do the second ssh from gateway to the work computer)
-A agent forwarding (only needed if you are using Pageant or another key agent)
-X enable X11 forwarding (only needed if you want to send X11 back to your home computer)

If you want X11 on Windows, setup Xming and Bob’s your Uncle.

Ran for Cancer and pancakes at the Canada Cancer Council 5/10 km Fun Run today! This time with Susannah, Kas, Holland, Chris, and Linda.
They all did well and we helped raise $41,000 for cancer research (as in all the runners, our group raised $100).

It was a cold rainy day, but we soldiered on. Holland and Linda managed an impressive 27 minutes for their fist 5K ever. Chris came in somewhere between 30 minutes and 44 minutes for the 5k, he was 10 minutes late cycling in, but I’ll spot him the 14. Susannah pushed hard through the 10k and got in just under 1 hour, amazing since she’s training for her first half-marathon next week and did 17 km on Friday. Kas and I kicked it at 1:02:58 for Kas’ first 10 km and her longest run ever! Smiling till the end, she put up with constant banter and singing marching jodies along the way.

Here’s us after filling up with pancakes and real maple syrup. And you can see we all have our stamps; I’m still aiming to get eight to redeem for Canadian Citizenship.

I tried sailing for the first time Sunday afternoon on a choppy, windy, cold lake Burley Griffin. It was a lot of fun!
Mostly I sat in the boat while someone else sailed, baby steps. I’m planning to take a course after the mid-term review is over.

Here are some photos.

I finally uploaded some photos from my two weeks in Queensland (a few are captioned). More to come. Enjoy these for now.

Today a friend and I ran the 10k (6mile) Canada Fun Run (formerly the Terry Fox Fun Run). It was a nice day with cool weather, many people participated to raise money for cancer research, and we managed a good finishing time.

The Canadian embassy served free pancakes after the race, with true Canadian maple syrup. The man ladling it assured me it’s shipped in yearly for the event.

I won second place in the Burgmann College Food Festival for my Chocolate Chip Cookies!

(First prize went to Spicy Chicken Wings.)


For second place I won a tea set for two.

Don’t ask me, apparently there was a Mother’s Day leftover sale. First place prize was a a large plate?! The third place prize was a bottle of wine. Maybe I should have made the cookies just a little bit worse ;-)

I received the photos taken by the marathon’s photographers along the route. Here they are, appropriately captioned :-)

I went to the footy on Saturday. Not soccer or American football, but Australian Rugby Union, which is not to be confused with Rugby League or the AFL (Australian Football League :-). Despite my friends best efforts to explain the rules, I still had no idea what was happening. For one they pass the ball backwards. Yet they want to go forwards? Oh well, the stadium was packed, I saw an man in a horse suit, and a helicopter dived the filed. All in all a fun night out!

Here are some photos.
