Thanks Peter. The only thing I can't get to work is logging on to the server at work from home via internet. Server has fixed IP address and when run ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] address I get "no route to host". I get the same reply trying to run the tunnelling script from your slides.
I have enabled access to port 22 on firewall and forwarding 22 to the local machine running cygwin. Maybe this has not been done correctly. However I can run successfully on the LAN from all computers at home and surgery, just cant connect the two via internet. Thanks for your trouble it is a good learning exercise for me -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter Machell Sent: Saturday, 1 July 2006 10:09 PM To: General Practice Computing Group Talk Subject: Re: [GPCG_TALK] Knock, knock On 30/06/2006, at 10:45 AM, Dr John Van Dyck wrote: Sorry John I missed this mail earlier. > Can you use cygwin both ends (eg say rdp home to surgery then > surgery to > home or is that getting too complicated?) > ie can cygwin ssh be both client and server? Yes, to setup a server you need to run ssh as a daemon, but to use it as a client you just type 'ssh'. > I have had a good play around with cygwin/ssh and it looks great. > Successfully installed it at home.
