Another option for Windows to just redirect a port would be www.analogx.com 's portmapper.
Install it on the server Then forward port 5901 on the server to a machine 5900. Then if you have many machines you could forward port 5902 to machine b 5900. It is free software. Now there is no encryption, so ssh would still be the best. But you could allow only certain IP's.

One way (that also gets you encryption over the Internet leg) is to look into SSH tunneling. You would install the SSH server on the machine that can be accessed directly and have SSH forward the ports to the internal machines. Check out "More advanced use" on the VNC/SSH page: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/sshvnc.html It appears this is also possible with Zebedee. Another option (that doesn't get you encryption) is VNCProxy: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/extras.html#vncproxy -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
