I tried port forwarding, but for some reason I can't ssh to localhost. It's odd.

❯ ssh localhost:1122
ssh: Could not resolve hostname localhost:1122: Name or service not known

❯ ssh 127.0.0.1:1122
ssh: Could not resolve hostname 127.0.0.1:1122: Name or service not known

In reply to @ibizaman:matrix.org
chinchilla optional I would put all that in your ssh config file. This usually always works vs. environment variables. Can you post your exact ssh command?
