I have been trying to install x11vnc and then use ssh tunnels to
connect. There are two different machines that I am trying to connect
to, one Ubuntu and one is an Apple iBook running Xubuntu.
1 I have no problem with either machine NOT using ssh
2 using ssh: ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 remote_name 'x11vnc -localhost
-display :0'
Works great with the Ubuntu machine
Does not work with the Xubuntu machine (vncviewer localhost:0
appears to connect, but there is no display)
I presume it must be some setting in ssh, but I can't see any
difference.
Can anyone help?
Try using the verbose flag to ssh and/or x11vnc, and compare the two
machines.
