Thanks! That didn't fix the problem :-) but my .ssh/config (on A) is now
much cleaner, since
* netcat definitely looks like a better tunneling solution
* I didn't know one could have multiple hosts on one 'Host' line <duh/>
though making those changes didn't fix the problem (i.e., ssh tunneling
worked, but only with password). But in reading about ssh+netcat, a
diagram dopeslapped me: when tunneling, the key from the tunnel start
(in this example, A) gets copied to the tunnel end (i.e., R), NOT any
key from any intermediate hosts (i.e., G). Which of course I knew, but

(doh!) and adding A:.ssh/id_rsa.pub to R:~/.ssh/authorized_keys fixed.
your assistance is appreciated, Tom Roche <Tom_Roche at pobox.com>
