ssh on CE2.11 (MIPS) - concurrent execution for port forwarding?

I installed ssh from http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/software.html on an 
IBM Z50 (CE 2.11/MIPS) and it seems to work fine, except for a key 
feature which was my main motivation in the first place - port 
forwarding to use other applications in a secure fashion...

It seems that data may not be able to flow "through" the port-
forwarded connections opened by ssh unless the ssh program itself has 
focus on the desktop of the CE machine. As an example, I have a ssh 
connection open, then start a telnet client that is set up to 
communicate through one of the ssh port-forwarding paths. The telnet 
client does not appear to send or receive data with it's intended 
host unless I can arrange that the ssh window is visible and selected.
 As an experiment, I tried using a simple shell script on the host 
for each window that would display current date/time once a second. 
If I minimize the ssh window, wait a while, then restore that window, 
the accumulated outputs would all appear at once. I've tried several 
programs as the "secondary" application (npop, vnc, telnet) and all 
have a similar sort of behavior.

Is this normal behavior for Windows CE? I have successfully used the 
port forwarding ssh setup on other machines, but not yet on the CE 2.
11 machine...

Much tnx,

Dave
