    Hi to all!
    Mac OS newbie here in need for help :) (I switched 6 months ago and I'm loving it!)

    I need to connect to a server on a private network, but I need to access two other intermediate servers on my way (crazy firewalls rules)

    It is something like:

    Me -> serv1 -> serv2 -> finalServ

    Each "jump" is an ssh I need to open with different credentials.
    My question is: is there any way I can set up this jumps and then have them done automatically with a single command? Any graphical applications out there? I tried Fugu but it only creates a single tunnel, I need 3 of them...
    Also, if possible, I'd really like to be able to use sftp to move files to the final server.

    Any ideas?

    Regards

    Domyalex

    Hrm... don't know. I use CLI SSH... but I don't know any other utils for doing what you need.

    It's a development server on my college campus' network; it's not like I'm trying to hack into somebody's machine =P

    As I have I have to access it from outside the campus' network and there are only a few "entry" points (this is why the need for the "jumps").

    Regards
