[Box-Admins] squeaksource.com move to Rackspace

Hi Tobias,

I am now running a test image on 'dan' that is listening for http connections
on port 8888, and for VNC connections on 5900. I installed telnet on 'dan' so
that I can verify that both listening ports are active on the server. But
I am unable to make TCP connections to either port from an outside machine.

I assume that I am missing some sort of port forwarding configuration, but
nothing I have tried so far has worked. Ideally I would like to connect to
the web server with http://104.130.170.38:8888 and use SSH local forwards
for the VNC connection.

Could you please try making connections to those two ports on 'dan' and
let me know the specific ssh port forwarding commands that made it work?

Thanks,
Dave
