[LUNI] backwards scp

[Viktorie Navratilova]

For more ssh fun, use the -X option to tunnel xwindows apps from your home
machine to work and vice versa. Bye bye network bandwidth!

The -X option takes care of exporting DISPLAY to point to your IP address
for you.

If you want to tunnel traffic through port 53 (DNS)to get around firewalls
that only allow DNS traffic, you can do this by tunneling things in ssh2
channels. ssh2 supports 64 channels so you can set up 64 different port
forwarding tunnels to go through the same ssh connection. The tedious part
is that you need to explicitly set up a tunnel for each service you want,
i.e. one for http, one for https, one for ftp, etc.
