Do you want to start a ssh deamon or a client?

Supposing you meant a ssh client I guess you should start a
xterm for the ssh. The following worked on my computer:

     + "QQQ: forward inka ports" Exec xterm -e ssh -N \
        -L1119:news.inka.de:119 -L1125:mail.inka.de:25 \
        -L1110:mail.inka.de:110 inka.de

Regards, Uwe
