Which one is the server? Windows or Linux?
I did it with Windows being the server.
Emerge (eerrrr... doble click) on OpenSSH setup program. Add the passwd and
group. Setup winvnc to listen ONLY on loopback.
Then on the Linux box (client)
$ ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 windowsbox
$ vncviewer -encondings tight localhost:0
(I'm using tightvnc)
The other way around can't be that hard. I guess you can use PuTTY on Windows
to open the tunnel, the rest is almost identical.
