Thanks. It would however be easier to read with more meaningful machine names. For example:
laptop, gateway, and target

Good Catch!
When writing this stuff its sometimes hard to keep track of.

I’ve fixed the text but will have to fix the image later. This early in the morning it makes my brain hurt.

Well explained tutorial, thanks for that, but I guess I found some mistake:

> From that connection, ssh to host A (the final target)
>
> user@hostB: ssh _hostB_

Do you mean: user@hostB: ssh _hostA_

And at the end in the picture Step 2 says the opposite than the text before.

I think you should run “ssh localhost -p2222″ from HostC not HostA, this was the reason for the whole magic :)

I hope I helped,
Bye
