One thing worth thinking about is that you are using ssh from A into B, and then
going from B to C with ssh presumably all using port 22? That is fine. But
additionally you are poer forwarding some private port on machine A into port 22
on C, and in that case if you tunnel from A to C going to port 22 on C for the
tunnel, then would this not clash with the ssh connection from B to C which is
already using port 22?

Just a thought
