Thanks to all who replied to my post. I believe I resolved my issue. The 
key for me was understanding that I had to think relative to my SSH 
client on the local machine and relative to the SSH server on the remote 
machine. So, locally, my application has to connect to 127.0.0.1 on port 
7000. This works because I also had to tell my SSH client to port 
forward any connection to 127.0.0.1 on port 7000 to the remote SSH 
server. As well, I also instructed the remote SSH server to forward any 
data, after it decrypts it, to the localhost (relative to the SSH 
server) on port 7000. This also works because the application server 
that I am connecting to also resides on the same host as the SSH server.

This works and, it works quite well. Thanks again to those who took the 
time to respond.

Cheers

Dave
