Specify bind address in remote port forwarding

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Please, add possibility to specify address to which bind the port on remote
address when using remote port forwarding.

It is now possible to do "-R port:host:hostport", but not "-R
bind_address:port:host:hostport".

Thanks a lot.

Note for implementor: "*" should bind to all remote addresses.

This function is very critical if you want to get access to multiple servers 
through SSL tunneling. All my development and production servers are currently 
accessible only by binding addresses in remote port forwarding.
So this application is not really usuable at this moment until this enhancement 
is implemented.

Thank you.

I second that motion. I need to to specify the bind IP and port for the SSL 
tunnel/port forward to manage multiple servers. Is there an eta on this being 
implemented?
