Greg,

I might have misunderstood what you are doing so bear with me (I'm dog
tired too, but that is a different story).

Is the host "myFirewall.is-a-geek.com" the box running squid? If so
shouldn't you use the SSH line:

ssh -l myUserName 192.168.15.1 -L 8080:127.0.0.1:8080

or in the more generic form:

ssh -l <username> <squidbox> -L 8080:127.0.0.1:8080

That's how I get access to my Firewall/Squid combo box at home.
