Hi All, Referencing this site http://freesco.no-ip.org/VNC/VNC_PuTTY_HOWTO.pdf but having some problems. (Can't get it to work) Am I correct to think that when one does SSH_remote forwarding, by creating the local port (5095) to be forwared to remote server port 5901, we are in effect creating the port 5095 locally? Meaning, if I do a nmap of the localhost I would see that port 5095 is open?? Cos when I do it, port 5905 is _not_ open and I can't connect to the remote vncserver. Can anyone shed some light? Thanks Cheers, .^. Mun Heng, Ow /V\ H/M Engineering /( )\ Western Digital M'sia ^^-^^ DID : 03-7870 5168 The Linux Advocate
