Putty: Local port 80 forwarding to localhost:80 failed: Network error: Permission denied

  • 772

In putty, I have the following:

  • Session
    • hostname:username@azurecontainsersvc_mgmt.eastus.cloudapp.azure.com
    • port: 2200
  • Connection>SSH>Tunnels L80 localhost:80
  • Connection>SSH>Auth Private key: my_public_key.ppk

Ans when I connect, it asks me for my password, everything looks great, but I get access denied. I have tried running as admin with the same results.

Any ideas? I am lost - thank you!

Not sure if it matters, but I am trying to connect to a DC/OS cluster on Azure: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/container-service/container-service-connect

  1. That problems can have different origins:

    1. tcp port 80 is already in use by another program. Check if you have a local web server running.
    2. You don't have sufficient privileges to open port 80. Listening to ports under 1024 needs administrator privileges.
    3. port forwarding is not permitted on the server side (AllowTcpForwarding no in sshd_config). If you can't change sshd_config on the server, then it just won't be possible to forward ports.

  2. Is it possible that you have an open session on port 80 or check that you are running putty as an admin. Win 10 is picky.
