Well on my system I would use ipfwadm to add a forwarding rule for the source/destination IP & port. Not knowing specifically about your system makes it difficult for me to make suggestions I'm afraid.

What we have to do is ssh into a machine at the office, then use a tunnel over
ssh to forward a port to the database.

Example:
ssh -L5432:dbmachine:5432 username@site.com

Then connect using:
psql -h localhost -p 5432 -d dbname -U username
