This works

This doesn't. Which I take it means that SolA is not opening port 6010 to
incoming connections. In a way that makes sense, since I thought 6010 was
the outgoing port back to my PC (through the tunnel). Perhaps I'm confused
about the directionality of the ports. As you can tell by now UNIX and TCP
protocols are most definetly not my strengths.
