tmux pairing via ssh tunnel

Step 0: both users edit ~/.ssh/config

thefonso:
Host tunnel_from_fonso
  Hostname name_of_your_machine.com
  RemoteForward 1235 localhost:22
  User thefonso
# ssh -R 1235:localhost:22 thefonso@name_of_some_machine.com


kosh:
Host tunnel_to_fonso
  Hostname name_of_some_machine.com
  LocalForward 9999 localhost:1235
  User kosh
# ssh -L 9999:localhost:1235 kosh@name_of_some_machine.com

Host fonso_via_ec2
  Hostname localhost
  User kosh
  Port 9999
# ssh localhost -p 9999


Step 1:
kosh: gets public ssh key
  cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub


kosh: copy paste cat results to thefonso via chat (or whatever)


thefonso: edits keys file on ec2.com
vim ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
paste the public key in authorized_keys




Step 2:
thefonso creates an ssh tunnel to his machine via ec2.com
thefonso: 
	ssh tunnel_from_fonso

Kosh creates a tunnel to thefonso's tunnel on ec2.com
kosh:
	ssh tunnel_to_fonso

Kosh in another shell can then ssh to thefonso's machine as follows
kosh:
	ssh fonso_via_ec2
