A question for the experts....

I have successfully set up the ssh tunnel to my Xvnc server using plink as
follows:

C:\Program Files\putty\plink.exe -ssh2 -C xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -L
5901:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5901

Xvnc is configured to reply in inetd mode using this inetd.conf entry:

vnc-med stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -localhost -inetd
-query localhost -once -geometry 1280x1024 -depth 24 -dpi 100

The problem is that although I am using the -localhost parameter on the
inetd.conf entry,  I can still connect directly to the port 5901 Xvnc server
which would allow my users to bypass the ssh tunnel.

Can someone tell me if I am doing something obviously wrong here?   Is there
a conflict using "-localhost" as well as "-query localhost" 

Thanks
Jon Polak
