Tunneling with JProfiler

I had some issues running JProfiler from a remote machine. I had a JBoss running on a remote Linux server, and for some reason, XWindows just didn’t work. Turns out I had to tunnel all my JProfiler connection, and luckily – that’s easy to do.
I typed a command on my own laptop (running Linux Mint)

ssh -f root@XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX -L 2000:localhost:8849 -N

And now, all I have to do is open a connection from JProfiler. I use attach to remote process, select localhost, port 2000, and that’s it – I can now profile the remote server.
