Well, as you said.. SSH is the ultimate solution.. I have been rolling Linux boxes out at just about every location we have and using it to hit VNC on the inside.. We have customers also that use it for port forwarding to As/400s for TN52520 etc.. Much easier and safer than a true VPN.
I really love running the vnc client from linux the best.. You can nail up a SSH connection and VNC all in one swoop. vncviewer -via [EMAIL PROTECTED] 192.168.x.x:0 Danny On 19/Mar/2004 07:20:30, Jeff Adams wrote: > There are a number of solutions available for tunneling VNC traffic through > a secure shell, thus creating a secure end-to-end connection.
