[geeks] Irix port forwarding

[Caleb Shay]

Almost.  Probably simple to fix from this point:

bind: Address already in use
channel_setup_fwd_listener: cannot listen to port: 139
Could not request local forwarding.

But, there is nothing running on port 139 on either my local machine or
the remote sgi.
