+01:42 < telmich> good evening
+01:43 < telmich> I am trying to make use of remote port forwarding using dynamic port 
+                 allocation (port=0) -- I am wondering if there is an easy way to 
+                 access the port number on the remote side easily?
+01:44 < telmich> background for this question is: I'd like to allow various clients to 
+                 login to a configuration server, which then configures the clients by 
+                 using the tunnel the client provides for the server to ssh back into
+02:07 < BasketCase> telmich: afaik you need to use a tool like ss/netstat/lsof to see what port it has open
