I wanted to forward my local 8080 port to the 80 port of the server I want to log in via SSH, so I did:



ssh -L 80:127.0.0.1:8080 -N -f myserver


But I get the error:



Privileged ports can only be forwarded by root.


I can execute sudo commands when logged in that server, but how can I do it for the purposes of port forwarding? (Note: appending sudo at the beginning of this command doesn't help, because the port 80 is not the port I want to use in localhost, but the port I want to target.)






ssh sudo openssh port-forwarding

          You probably want



          ssh -L 8080:127.0.0.1:80 -N -f myserver


          Local port comes first. (That's not my political stance!)

                    How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

                    Image
                    Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
