As discussed YESTERDAY for the forwarding host you need to use the internal IP. If you use the external IP then SSH tries to talk to your firewall. ssh 151.199.60.120 -l username -C -L 5902:192.168.1.100:5901 -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
