| Apr 2, 2013 at 15:39 | comment | added | Benjamin Jones | I believe I might be getting some where. I 1st connected to SSH server using a reverse ssh tunnel: plink -ssh -P 22 username@WANIP -pw "password" -R 445:WindowsIP:445. Next I tried to mount the Windows share from the Ubuntu Server. sudo mount -t cifs //WinIP/UbuntuTest /mnt/UbuntuTest -o port=445,username="",password=,domain=. Got this error now:mount error(115): Operation now in progress . Any clue on what this error might be in relation to my issue. | |
| Apr 2, 2013 at 14:51 | comment | added | Benjamin Jones | @ terdon. My issue wasn't Reverse SSH by port forwarding a webserver. but how to use Reverse SSH by portforwarding a windows share (windows computer behind firewall and Ubuntu Server hosting sshserver needs to access windows file share). As my orginal post mention. | |
| Apr 2, 2013 at 14:47 | comment | added | Benjamin Jones | Now that I know Reverse SSH works, how would I get to my Windows share that is on the Windows laptop behind an unaccessable firewall, from my Ubuntu Server? I tried to set putty (plink would work as well) on my Windows machince to portforward source 4445 destination localhost:445, remote button clicked. Then use the command from my Ubuntu Server(connected from putty session): smbclient -L //localhost -p 4445 -U "Username" to list the reverse ssh Windows share. FAILED! Error: read error = NT_STATUS_END_OF_FILE. hmmmm not to sure what this means? | |

| Apr 2, 2013 at 14:38 | comment | added | Benjamin Jones | Ok, so with out any help from this form, I believe I am getting a little closer. I have setup a successful Reverse ssh tunnel to view my Windows laptop webserver that sits behind a firewall on another network from my Ubuntu Server. Putty portforward source:9090 destination localhost:80 and make sure the remote/auto options are clicked. Once resverse tunnel is established from putty (Windows laptop), try wget localhost:9090 from your Ubuntu machine. If you get your files transferred then the reverse ssh to your Windows laptop that sits behind firewall from your Ubuntu Server worked | |
| Apr 1, 2013 at 18:20 | comment | added | Benjamin Jones | how do I mount a Windows share from a Ubuntu Server. The Window share is on another network and I cannot open any ports on the network that is hosting this windows share. So correct me if I am wrong, but I would setup a Reverse SSH tunnel via putty on the Windows machine and setup portfordwarding in order to access the Windows share on the Ubuntu Server, correct? | |
