Ok.. I have seen this topic aeveral times on this list, and each time it
seems it has come to a somewhat unclear conclusion (at least in my
mind). Finally, I have run into the same road block as many others, I
have numerous VNC Servers on 'our' network and the idea of insecure
communications across the network is really starting to 'irk' me.
With the information I gain/apply here, I will write up a complete howto
for securing VNC connections. Ok.. w/ that said, I now have to ask some
questions..
What is the 'best' most secure way to communicate w/ VNC Server on a
network?
Most of my clients are Windows users, however I use ONLY Linux and have
many spare Linux boxen that I could use as 'middle men' if neccesary to
port forward the SSH connection.
So, basically all I'm looking to do here is find out how to secure a VNC
connection, should I use the browser interface, ssh, etc..??
Thanks
Jeff
