Brendan:
I think I understand your setup to be:
Windows-PC <-proxy-> Internet <-> Ubuntu-PC
When I said "Viewer", I presumed you wanted to start a
VNC Viewer on the Windows-PC, and connect to a VNC Server that
could connect directly with the Ubuntu-PC (either via the
Internet, or via a LAN). To do that with proxytunnel, you'd
setup a proxytunnel server on the Ubuntu-PC, listening to TCP 443,
and connect to it with a proxytunnel client running on the
Windows-PC (or, ideally, on a Linux PC on the same LAN as the
Windows-PC -- proxytunnel requires cygwin to run on Windows,
which can be a bit of a hassle, but not too bad).
To do it with EchoVNC, of course, it would look like:
VNC Viewer <-proxy-> Internet <-> echoServer <-> VNC Server
or
VNC Server <-proxy-> Internet <-> echoServer <-> VNC Viewer
Which, if it works, is easier.
cheers,
Scott

the computer behind the proxy has windows on it
when you say my viewer pc do you mean the ubuntu one outside the proxy?
also, is making a tunnel through the proxy, from the windows computer inside
the proxy, to a port on the ubuntu computer outside the proxy, setting up a
proxytunnel server to listen to tcp 443 on the ubuntu computer?
thanks very much
