Sorry for the misinformation guys.
Thanks all for the clarification. That works for me too. I have corrected my journal entry.
Anyrate I agree that the localhost localhost thing is not an obvious thing and should be documented. I mean that's the common reason I use tunneling so I can have my server only listen on localhost.
