Hi,

This question may be better suited for a SSH list, but it involves VNC so
here goes. I just need simple clarification.

I have a VNC Server on my Linux Server and I can connect to it from my WinXP
box just fine. I set up tunneling on my WinXP box using the following
command:

ssh -L 5905:localhost:5901      [EMAIL PROTECTED]

And I open my VNC Viewer and connect to 'localhost:5' and it connects. So
here's my question...What is actually being secured? Does the Linux VNC
Server know to decrypt or 'un-ssh' what it receives on port 5901? Am I
missing a big part of what I am doing?

Thanks,

--Zach
