[Swift-devel] How to run automatic coasters from a firewalled host?

[Mihael Hategan]

on orthros:

export GLOBUS_HOSTNAME=localhost
export GLOBUS_TCP_PORT_RANGE=x,y

then tunnel all ports between x, y on beagle to the same ports on
orthros.

What that does is tell the coaster service to connect to
localhost:<some_port_between_x_and_y>, which is actually on beagle which
is forwarded to orthros.

I think. Let me know if it works.
