           Summary: I would like to control the remote communication port

Hello!

I would like to debug my target (which is at home), from my remote work
computer while being at home through a VPN.

>From home I connect to my workstation through the VPN and create an ssh tunnel  
(ssh config: `RemoteForward localhost:10000 TARGET_LAN_IP:10000`).

But when I try to attach to the running application on the target it
dynamically allocates a port and tries to reach the server to that port.
Unfortunately, this is not possible because of the ssh tunnel. I can however do
: `platform connect connect://localhost:10000`, but I cannot go into debugging.

SSH tunnelling doesn't support, as far as I know, ranges of RemoteForward
ports.

Is there a way to control the port that is dynamically allocated? I found a
"similar" issue of 4 years ago: (I'm not inside a container, but the idea is
the same)

http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/lldb-dev/2016-June/010616.html

I'm wondering if the situation is still the same and the port cannot be set
manually?
