RE: Connect to work´s W2K box using dial-up and SSH

[Tim McGarry]

The connection will only be encrypted from you home PC as far as the
linux box, I'm assuming this is ok.

Win2k@Work IP is aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd

Use SSH to reach the linux box and ask for a local port forward from
port 5900 to aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:5900 (port forwards are easily set up in
the session config on PuTTY

Once you've used SSH to connect to the Linux box from home you should be
able to start up a viewer on the home PC and connect to localhost:0

Subject: Connect to work4s W2K box using dial-up and SSH

Hello,

  I am trying to connect to a VNC server, in my W2K 
machine at work from my home box, using dial-up. So far, 
I can connect to a linux ssh server at work using Putty, 
but I have no clue about how can I 'redirect' the 
connection from the linux VNC client to the W2K VNC 
server. To be more clear, here4s what I4m trying to do:

                   (?SSH to VNC?)         (VNC server)
W2K(home) <-(SSH)-> Linux Server <-(VNC)-> W2K at work

I don4t know very well about SSH, but I saw it has some 
type of 'tunneling', which I think can be used to make 
that 'SSH-to-VNC' translation. Is there any way to do 
this?

Thanks for the help,

Luis.
