SSH Tunnelling - Remote Debugging - eclipse

Question

I can ssh into the server say abc.xyz on port 22 but i can't remote debug it in Eclipse. Here is the additional info :
Server startup arguments -
-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=1234,server=y,suspend=n
Confirmation from logs -
Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 1234
When I telnet on my local system -
local-machine% telnet abc-xyz 1234
Trying xx.xx.xx.xx...
telnet: connect to address xx.xx.xx.xx: Connection timed out
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out
When I telnet on the server(abc.xyz) -
abc-xyz% telnet localhost 1234
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
I've tried setting up tunnel via -
ssh -L 1234:localhost:1234 user#abc-xyz
ssh -L 1234:127.0.0.1:1234 user#abc-xyz
I'm attaching debugger in Eclipse with this config -
Connection type - Standard (Socket attach)
Host - localhost
Port - 1234
Can't get Eclipse to attach to 1234.
After setting up SSH Tunnel, if i manually try to connect to the port, i get this response -
local-machine% telnet localhost 1234
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
and I see an entry in catalina.out as:
channel 4: open failed: connect failed: Connection refused
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT - 1:
I ran
abc-xyz% ~#
and got the following output:
The following connections are open:
#2 client-session (t4 r0 i0/0 o0/0 fd 7/8 cc -1)
#3 direct-tcpip: listening port 1234 for localhost port 1234, connect from 127.0.0.1 port 23456 (t4 r1 i0/0 o0/0 fd 10/10 cc -1)
I think ssh tunneling is working, it's just the way i'm connecting with Eclipse which is going wrong here.

Answer 1

I just had to increase timeout. (Can be done via Window->Preferences->Java->Debugging. Set it to some appropriate value.)
