Can you clarify these options for me? Am I right to think that 
--on-timeout defaults to "ssh" and is the service name to forward on 
connections that hit the timeout value? In which case I'm slightly 
confused by the usage text that says "[--on-timeout <addr>]". Is that 
<addr> supposed to be <name>?

And if you can now change it to a different service like http or ssl, 
does that imply that there is now a way of detecting ssh with a probe 
rather than the timeout?

And for the --anyprot parameter. Is that now for if it detects 
something sent before the timeout, but it doesn't match any probes? What 
happens if you don't include this parameter, which service does it then 
default to for this?

Cheers, Matt.
