Thank you for the message. I did the above:

1) On the Mac:
telnet localhost 52698
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 blinky.local RMATE TextMate (Darwin 12.4.0)

So, it seems to work fine.

2) Next from the remote server. First, I ssh with verbosity on:

[snip]
debug1: Remote connections from LOCALHOST:52698 forwarded to local address localhost:52698
debug1: channel 0: new [client-session]
debug1: Requesting no-more-sessions at openssh.com
debug1: Entering interactive session.
debug1: remote forward success for: listen 52698, connect localhost:52698
debug1: All remote forwarding requests processed
debug1: Sending environment.
debug1: Sending env RMATE_PORT = 52698
debug1: Sending env LANG = en_US.UTF-8
debug1: Sending env LC_CTYPE = en_US.UTF-8

So, the forwarding seems to be enabled. Recall that my ssh configuration is:

Host REDACTED.HOST1
 RemoteForward 52698 localhost:52698
 SendEnv RMATE_*

I then try the telnet on the remote system:

telnet localhost 52698
debug1: client_input_channel_open: ctype forwarded-tcpip rchan 3 win 2097152 max 32768
debug1: client_request_forwarded_tcpip: listen localhost port 52698, originator 127.0.0.1 port 47996
debug1: connect_next: host localhost ([127.0.0.1]:52698) in progress, fd=8
debug1: channel 1: new [127.0.0.1]
debug1: confirm forwarded-tcpip
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
debug1: channel 1: connection failed: Connection refused
connect_to localhost port 52698: failed.
debug1: channel 1: free: 127.0.0.1, nchannels 2
Connection closed by foreign host.

So, it fails the connection...

Any idea why that would be the case all of a sudden (on multiple servers)? Particularly if it is responsive on the Mac.

Thanks,
Brian
