SSH tunneling error: "channel 1: open failed: administratively prohibited: open failed"

When I open this ssh tunnel:

ssh -nXNT -p 22 localhost -L 0.0.0.0:8984:remote:8983

I get this error when trying to access the HTTP server running on localhost:8984:

channel 1: open failed: administratively prohibited: open failed

What does this error mean, and on which machine can you fix the problem?
