Yes, I thought so.

That might be what I did with the SSH command in my other posting

  ssh -f -N -C -T -l rvanovermeiren -L5902:localhost:5901 10.3.1.194

When I run the command again, it returns 'bind: Address already in use',
so I thought I was binding ports to addresses.

Yes, so my box doesn't allow external connections for telnet or VNC.

I can close my connection to the SSH gateway, but the tunneling
connection stays there, and I can re-VNC. I guess I need to get the proc
ID then kill it?
