[driverloader] ssh port forwarding

[Damia Gomila]

I am using driverloader on Redhat 9.0, and it seems to work, except that
ssh port forwarding doesn't work with the wifi interface. I am using

	ssh -L 1700:remotehost:1700 remotehost

to forward traffic to port 1700 at localhost to the remotehost.
