How to use rsub with Sublime Text with OpenSSH Windows 10

I am using Windows 10 openssh (built into cmd) with rsub () installed on an Ubuntu (18.04 LTS) server and Sublime Text 3. I am connecting using:

ssh -p 22 -R 52698:localhost:52698 -i privateKey user@hostname

I am using the command:

sudo rsub test.txt

it will not return any error or open the file in Sublime Text.

I have checked netstat server side and client side and confirmed that there are TCP services listening on port 52698 client and server side.

Are there any prerequisites that I may be missing? Are there any firewalls that should be changed server side or client side?

Install rmate on your Ubuntu machine and use 'sudo rmate file.txt' to open sublimetext locally with rsub installed.

stumble upon the same issue, fixed with -R 52698:127.0.0.1:52698
