I think what you want is: r...@local# ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 remote.dyndns.info [...start a new local session...] r...@local# vncviewer localhost:0 You want vncviewer running on the local machine, so that RFB is encrypted and sent over the network. The original method would have had RFB running between the remote machine and the remote machine, with uncompressed X11 being encrypted and sent over the network. (Also, -X isn't needed because you're not going to run X11 programs remotely, and -C shouldn't be useful, since RFB ought to be uncompressible already as it's already compressed) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
