Re: [clug-talk] remote access

[Dalin Laqua]

I use vnc with port forwarding through an ssh tunnel.  Works nicely and 
affords you all the security of ssh.  If you want to connect from a 
windows client then have a look at putty.  Otherwise the man pages for 
ssh can tell you how to go about it on linux.

I would like to remote access a Linux box.  I have seen a number of 
people do it but not sure on what you are using.  I am aware of VNC but 
it does seem to lack security.  I have heard of SSL but am unsure of 
some of the pro's and con's of the various methods.

Would someone be able to enlighten me as to where I should be looking 
for additional information.
