Reverse dynamic forwarding

Great book, thanks!

Since version 7.6, OpenSSH client is able to act as a reverse SOCKS 5 proxy with -R option (just don't provide tunnel target). Great function to give an isolated host full internet access… I already use it to update hosts, download stuff from internet, or access internal network resources from a distant server. It should be described as a part of 6 or 7 chapter.

Hi @hobgoblinsmaster - glad you like it! Appreciate the reminder about that capability. It may be a while until I can take a look and find the best place to put it. I'll keep this issue open for now to remind me.
