We did something similar for FileScope but we used pseudo terminals.
The solution works for both password authentication and ssh-keys.

thanks phil,
it's a bit overkill for to implement a fullblown ssh-client,
only for creating a tunnel, so i was thinking of just using NSTask
with OSX's built-in ssh client.
creating the tunnel the tunnel using NSTask works pretty straight
forward,
but right now i'm struggling with the authentication process.
for testing purposes i was using ssh-keys, but in the final
implementation
the software will be running on arbitrary machines, installed by
random
people on random locations. those machine will break, and need to
be replaced
at some point etc... so ssh-keys are no option.
i can do an interactive ssh-login with NSTask, but where do i store
the password?
is there a way to safely include this (encrypted?) in the binary?
does anyone have experience with / a solution for a scenario like
this?
thanks,
arri

for implementing this inside a cocoa-app.
There's nothing built-in, a quick Google search for 'ssh library'
revealed a few C and C++ libraries that let you programmatically
access ssh functionality.
