Shared Ssh Tunnel

[redxine]

I have a wireless ad-hoc network set up on my Karmic machine to connect some iPods (in the band room), and I'd like to get ssh tunnelling working with the ipods. Sure we could fork out the $7 for an ssh apps, but I should be able to share the socks proxy set up from the -D option in ssh, as by default it only allows sock connections on the loopback device unless specified, but

ssh -D *:9999 me@host

returns "bind: Address already in use" and

ssh -D 192.168.2.1:9999 me@host

shows up as open if I run nmap 192.168.2.1 from another machine, but the proxy doesn't work (firefox).

Any suggestions?
