Package: grdesktop
Version: 0.23-2+b1
Severity: normal
When using the ssh tunnel option the rdesktop command is executed on the
remote host via ssh and displayed via x forward on the local host.
I would expect this option to work another way. I'd like to have ssh
executed for building up an ssh tunnel for forwarding the port.
When the ssh connection is established rdesktop localhost:$port is
executed.
For this X forwarding does not need to be enabled on the server or the
client and you don't need X libs on the server, which are usually not
installed on a gateway server in a network where one might ssh to.
I get errors saying it could not open the display. Thatlike problems
whould disapper when using a ssh tcp-port-tunnel. Tunneling is possible
with almost every ssh standard-config.
