Okay clearly this won’t work because there aren’t enough local ports to match to 16 bits of ports on potentially 255 machines, but with some slight modification I could add in a test to only increment the local port if the forward is successful and thereby create the dumbest-ass port forwarding script ever.
OK listen hear me out. Perfect opportunity for guests to learn how to ssh tunnel to port forward to their local device 😅
I’ll save noobies some time.

I like where your head is at.
We could also save some time just parsing something like…
