Or you can try Zebedee:

                     http://www.winton.org.uk/zebedee/

which was recently posted to the list.  It does (only) the port forwarding
with compression and encryption like SSH without all the extra baggage.
It's really easy to set up, he provides windoze binaries if you need them,
and best of all it's GPLed.
