You said that you are using localhost:00.  On Linux, VNC will start up on
display 01 instead of 00.  Try localhost:01 and see if that works.  You will
also have to change the forwarded port to 5901.
  I am using Putty with port forwarding.  I setup Putty with a source port
of 5901 to tunnel to my other machine at its ip address (.i.e.
192.168.1.10:5901).  Once I connect I launch VNC on my remote linux machine
and then launch my local vncviewer to 127.0.0.1:1.

Tunnelier is a cool little program.

With that said, I still can't get it to work. I've tried SSH-win32,
TeratermPro with SSH Plugin, and now Tunnelier.

I have port 5902 open on the firewall on the Linux PC and can connect
directly using the VNC client. On all the clients I've tried to forward
5900 (as well as a couple others). When I run VNC client nothing happens. I
put in localhost:00 or [local ipaddress]:00 and nothing happens. It never
prompts for the password, errors out, nothing....

I've also tried Tunnelier on another pc using port 5905 forwarding to 5902.
Same result. Tunnelier shows a successful connection to the remote machine,
shows it listening on 5905, and then shows that it tries to redirect to
5904 on the server running SSH.

Any ideas what's happening?

Thanks,
James
