I have a problem at work because they have turned off nearly all our
ports outgoing as well as incoming....
what I would like to do is this...
HOME
Linux box running a vncserver
           |
           |
           |
CABLE MODEM
           |
           |
           |
Firewall at work
           |
           |
           |
My Win2k desktop system at work
running a VNCviewer
I also have some Linux and Solaris systems which I can use...
What I would like to do is set up an ssh tunnel so that I can view my
Linux system at home which
so my thinking is that I should be able to use one of the *nix boxes to
tunnel the VNC connection via ssh over port 22
what commands on the Linux/Solaris boxes do I need to use to do that,
also do I need to run some command on my Linux box at home to complete
the connection
I have been able to view my Home Win2k system on my work 2k system using
a tunnel via putty, so I know it is possible... and I just redirect a
port on my Home Linux system to my home Win2K box.
Thanks
Chris
