    Didier,

    If you want SSH remote port forwarding, local port
    forwarding, or X11 forwarding, one of your machines
    needs to be running SSH.

    Secondly, you wrote:

    $ ssh -R 6000:localhost:5555 10.xxx.xxx.xxx

    If you want to "send xterm to remote workstation" I
    think you mean:

    $ ssh -L 6000:localhost:6000 10.x.x.x

    "ssh to remote host, bind my localhost port 6000 to
    remote machine's localhost port 6000" or in your case,
    port 5555.

    Hope this helps,

    ak.
