Hello everyone,
I am actually here with a usage question for the libssh2 PHP binding
rather than a devel question, feel free to redirect me.
I am trying to setup a tunneled ssh connection from a PHP script to an ssh
server. It's a two-step connection over a 'security gateway', as firewalls
prevent me from reaching the target server directly.
Using ssh, i would typically do
ssh -NL localhost:localport:desthost:22 &
ssh -p localport localhost
Now, the PHP binding does provide ssh2_tunnel() which takes remote host
and port, but it returns a PHP resource accepting fwrite(), fgets(), etc.
Unless there is something major I am missing, I believe this is of any
use for another ssh connection through it. Or is there a way to start
a libssh2 session on an existing tcp connection using the PHP binding ?
Any help is appreciated.
Immanuel Gregoire
