Thanks David,
I can SSH to the esmith box. I get the command line on the esmith box.
However I've never gone past that esmith box into my windows network.
Is it really possible to be able to "see" a Windows machine
attached to
a esmith box via SSH and the Internet?
You can tunnel any port over SSH. All you need to do to tunnel RDP is
forward port 3389.
So to connect to a box on your LAN with the IP of 10.0.0.1, do this:
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] -L 3389:10.0.0.1:3389
Then RDP to localhost on port 3389.
If you're doing this from an XP box you'll need to use a non standard
port because it's already listening for an RDP connection on 3389,
you sometimes also need to connect using a secondary localhost IP:
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] -L 3389:10.0.0.1:3390:127.0.0.2
Then RDP to 127.0.0.2:3390
If you don't have the luxury of ssh on the command line, later
versions of Putty do the job, just use the tunneling options.
regards,
Peter.
