Tunneling

[Joao Pedro Almeida Pereira <joao.almeida@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,
I am trying to develop a tunnel system using libssh but from what i could
find in the tutorials i am not sure that i can do it with libssh.
What i need is a tunnel to reach an SSH server, basically what i need is

ssh -T -N -L 9999:HostB:22 user@HostA


My machine ====> HostA ====> HostB

And then connect to HostB SSH server using the local port.
From what i saw in the tutor's i can do this but after receiving the
channel i would need to perform the authentication by hand and not use the
libssh to do the connection to that server.

So basically what i want to know is if libssh is able to bind a local port
in order to be able to use libssh to handle the following connection
