Has anyone used VNC over SSH before? I am trying to utilize an SSH
connection to a Linux machine, in order to display an NT desktop (on the
same network as the Linux box) back to my Win98 machine (lmachine where I am
executing the VNC Viewer) on the other end of the SSH connection. Please see
my diagram below:
Win NT machine <--Ethernet---> Linux Machine
<---------SSH/Internet---------> Win98
Is this possible? I have a feeling that my ports are where my problem
exists, I have been successful in establishing the SSH connection but not in
establishing the VNC connection. The SSH port is 22 incidentally. Thanks for
any help!
