Hmm...must be doing something wrong. I have TightVNC installed on a windows
machine, ip 192.168.1.102. I have OpenSSH running on linux machine, ip
192.168.1.75. I have putty set up under Connection->SSH->Tunnels with
source port of 5901 and destination of "192.168.1.75:5900". I connect
through putty, password authenticate, and get a bash shell just fine. I
then try to scan port 5901 on the machine running putty, but get no
response....the port appears to be closed.
What's going on? Could this have something to do with the fact that I'm
running ipchains on the linux machine? Again, I'm a newbie to linux, but
I'm pretty sure that all my outgoing ports are open (":output ACCEPT" at top
of ipchains). I also tried adding this line to ipchains, to no avail:
"-A input -s 0/0 -d 192.168.1.0/24 5900:5900 -p TCP -y -j ACCEPT"
So what am I missing?
Thanks a million!

But since the OP wanted to go to a machine that is not the SSH server, VNC
server's name or IP should go in the destination box. For example:
Destination: vncserver:5900
