I am using vncviewer in listening mode and I am trying to use a firewall as a gateway to my clients workstations. The goal is to have client initiated connections with my firewall where my vncviewer is already connected with ssh. I want this so I can be anywhere and have clients invite me in quickly to assist them. I can, then, ssh from within or without my network to my firewall as needed. I have not seen references in the docs or lists regarding this particular scenario.
The ssh stuff is working, since vncviewer acknowledged the connection, but denies it and offers the "...loopback disabled ..." error message. If, vncviewer cannot do this, is their any other way around this. Currently, I am using putty as the ssh client on the windows machines and OpenSSh on my firewall. I really want reverse connections, since I do not wish to dial into their networks. I provide service and support to small business and have kept the costs down on remote access using VNC with RAS or PCA on a gateway machine where broadband is available. However, to access the average workstation requires a connect to a gateway machine and then to the workstation in question. Its doable, but slow when the client is on the line. I would welcome any help.
