wodSSHServer ActiveX Control - PortForwardConnect Event
    
 

Description

Fires when user port forwarding is to be established.


Syntax

Private Sub object_PortForwardConnect(User, RemoteHost, RemotePort, Action)



The PortForwardConnect Event syntax has these parts:

Part Description
object A wodSSHD object.
User A SSHUser object. Reference to user who is responsible for this port forwarding.
RemoteHost A String value. Hostname or IP address of remote peer.
RemotePort A Long value. Port number used on the remote peer's computer.
Action A SSHActions enumeration, as described in settings. Action to perform - Allow allows connection, Deny refuses it.

Settings

The settings for Action are:

Constant Value Description
 Deny 0 Deny execution of the action.
 Allow 1 Allow to execute action.

Remarks

This event is fired after request for port forward or port binding (appropriate event was already fired when such request was made by the client) is successfully established. At this point either wodSSHD did successfully connect to the server, or someone successfully connected to wodSSHD. In either way, wodSSHD is ready to forward traffic between end-peer and the connected client.

You can check RemoteHost and RemotePort arguments to decide whether remote peer is allowed to be connected to the server. If you wish to cancel this action, you can set Action = Deny and the connection with end-peer will be dropped immediately. Connected client will not be notified about this connection in such case.
