Yes I do have a firewall at home.....
all systems are connected via a linksys router/fierwall
No, I am OK with putty on the Win2k box at work end
It is at the private IP 192.168.............. of my linux box that I am not
sure about...
I want to be able to see my linux desktop on my Win2k box at work.... or even
my linux boxes at work
I was looking for a simple tunnel option in the ssh manual, but couldn't find it
I was looking for a command like
ssh -T 5901:localhost:x homeipaddress
in other words, tunnel port x on this machine over port 22 and then send it to
5901 on the remote machine
but there is no such command......
