title: How to create SSH tunnel using PuTTY in Windows?
body: <p>I need to create SSH tunnel with PuTTY in Windows, that would do the same as this command in Linux:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ssh -fN -L 2000:SomeIp:2000 myusername@myLinuxBox
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried many options in PuTTY, including setting source port in GUI to "2000" and destination to "SomeIp:2000". Destination is set to local (as the <code>-L</code> switch suggests).</p>
  
  <p>I successfully login to my SSH box but port forward is not made.</p>
  
  <p>Is this even possible in Windows, so that all the connections made by programs that use this port (2000) will go through this tunnel?</p>
