Trivial. In the connection configuration within PuTTY, Connection/SSH/Tunnels,
fill in source port (5555 for instance), destination (machine:5432), select
'Local' radio and click Add. Save the connection, then open it. In this
instance, from pgAdmin (I'm using pgAdmin II V1.6), host is 'localhost', port
'5555'.
