Setting for firewall: Using SSH's port forwarding and MXIO option.

There will be some firewalls between remote hosts and the client host when the client host and the remote hosts extend across administrations. When we use ssh for agent activation, programs communicate with the client and agent, using ssh port forwarding . Using the ssh port forwarding function, we can communicate between remote executable modules on the remote host and client program. This is OmniRPC's multiplex communication function. If you want to use this feature, specify the "mxio" attribution in the agent.

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<OmniRpcConfig>
   <Host name="dennis.hpcc.jp" arch="i386" os="linux">
   <Agent invoker="ssh"  mxio="on"  />
   </Host>
</OmniRpcConfig>
 

The relationship of the agent and rex with this option is as follows. In this case, communication with rex and the client program occurs by way of rex.
