New description:

 I'm running the tahoe-lafs node with
 {{{
 web.port = tcp:3456:interface=127.0.0.1
 }}}
 on a dedicated machine. I'm then using something like
 {{{
 ssh -N -f -L 10000:127.0.0.1:3456 hostname
 }}}
 to set up ssh port forwarding on my laptop to be able to access the web
 interface. I can then successfully see the web interface at
 http://127.0.0.1:10000/ from my laptop.

 However, the buttons redirect me to invalid addresses, e.g.
 "http://127.0.0.1:3456/uri/..." instead of keeping port 10000. Tried both
 the "Create a directory" and the "View!" button.
