Re: Tunneling VNC over SSH

Nice,but I'm trying the same with RealVNC because of the possibity to ask the user if he wants to have me looking over his shoulder.

RealVNC has no "Allow only Loopback" function.

There must be some kind of portforwarding in the "sshd_config" to let SSH forward the incoming traffic to port 5900

What's the trick?

mike, adding a registry entry did the job for me.
google for "vnc ssh" and you will likely find the answer
