Assuming you are using the ssh tunnel above, then you don't need
port
4005
traffic on the LAN (it is all hidden in the tunnel).
The most likely problem is that some firewall on the Windows
machine is
blocking port 4005. You may need to configure that firewall to
allow
ssh
to listen on localhost:4005 and/or to accept connections to it from
Spacemacs.
In theory you might have similar localhost firewall issues on
hal9000,
but
that is less likely.

I'm assuming that you ran the ssh command on the Windows 10 machine
and it
gave you a working login to hal9000. If so, then it looks like you
already
have what you need for port 22.
Yes, I can log in to hal9000 with the -L switch:
ssh -L4005:localhost:4005 mirko@hal9000
Last login: Thu Mar 19 14:33:17 2020 from 172.27.236.189 [mirko@hal9000 ~]$
Note that bi-directional traffic on a connected socket is different
from
whether you can make a connection in both directions.

Firstly, run "netstat -antp" on hal9000 to see if Lisp is
listening on
port
It looks that ccl-bin is listening: $ sudo netstat -antp | grep :4005 tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:4005 0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN
104461/lx86cl64Secondly, run "netstat -anop tcp" on the Windows 10 machine to see
if
ssh
is listening on port 4005.
I have Msys2's netstat. On the laptop:
which netstat
/c/WINDOWS/system32/netstat /c/Users/mirko/Downloads
netstat -anop tcp | grep :4005
TCP 127.0.0.1:4005 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
12052
Yes, both netstat outputs look good at that point.
Thirdly, run "ssh -p 4005 localhost" on the Windows 10 machine.
This
use a
ssh is very bogus, but it should at least give an error message
with
some
diagnostics. (Normally I would use telnet for this, but it is not installed on Windows 10 by default.)
Outputs of both ssh and telnet on the laptop:
which telnet
/usr/bin/telnet /c/Users/mirko/Downloads
telnet localhost 4005
Trying ::1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host.
OK, so it is connected to the Windows side at least.
Check that the Slynk server was created with :dont-close t (or set slynk:*dont-close* to t before creating it). If dont-close is nil, it
will
only accept one connection, which makes debugging difficult.
Then restart the log in to hal9000 with -v option to ssh to make it
debug information:
ssh -v -L4005:localhost:4005 mirko@hal9000
and try the telnet again to see what is happening at the Linux end.
__Martin
Here is the test log. Telnet and ssh debug are at the bottom. 1 Start slynk with :dont-close t
Modified startup script:
(let ((port 4005)) (slynk:create-server :port port :dont-close t) (format t "~% Created SLYNK server on port ~a" port)) (setf slynk:*use-dedicated-output-stream* nil)
2 Started tunnel with verbose option, -v switch
$ ssh -v -L4005:hal9000:4005 mirko@hal9000
3 Telnet on laptop side to laptop port 4005
@laptop> telnet localhost 4005 Trying ::1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host.
4 SSH debug output
@hal9000> debug1: Connection to port 4005 forwarding to hal9000 port 4005 requested. debug1: channel 3: new [direct-tcpip] channel 3: open failed: connect failed: Connection refused debug1: channel 3: free: direct-tcpip: listening port 4005 for hal9000 port 4005, connect from ::1 port 64100 to ::1 port 4005, nchannels 4
It looks like hal9000 is resolving to the IPv6 localhost address ::1 on hal9000, but the Lisp is probably only listening on IPv4.
Try restarting the tunnel with -L4005:127.0.0.1:4005 to force IPv4.
__Martin
I restarted tunnel with IPv4: Now when I type something in the telnet session, I get Lisp to respond (with debugger in this case). Sly is still not connecting - maybe I need to restart emacs.
Log: 1 Start slynk with :dont-close t as before 2 Start tunnel with verbose option, -v switch and IPv4
$ ssh -v -L4005:127.0.0.1:4005 977315@hal9000
3 Telnet on laptop side to laptop port 4005
@laptop> telnet localhost 4005 Trying ::1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'.
3.1 SSH debug output to telnet start
debug1: Connection to port 4005 forwarding to 127.0.0.1 port 4005 requested. debug1: channel 3: new [direct-tcpip]
4 Send command via telnet session
Using telnet session send command:
*features* Connection closed by foreign host.
4.1 Results in an error in lisp due to syntax error

This \x00FF\x00F4\x00FF\x00FD\x00FF string is unexpected to me. Did that happen when you tried to connect from emacs? Restarting emacs is probably a good idea to rule out any issue with its state.

This is working as expected -- the slynk/swank server is not a REPL so you can't just send *features* to it.
