Sorry I didn't make it clear. I don't have any router. I'm connected to Internet via LAN. My IP address is something like 192.168.3.20 and I use ISP' router IP (192.168.0.1) as a gateway (I don't have any access to the router). So, I decided its called NAT. Am I wrong here? I don't know. I know only that I can't reach my computer from the outside of the LAN. So, I did the following: on the target computer I ran: ssh -R 10002:localhost:22 user@xxxxxxxxxxx (it's a computer somewhere and I have ssh access there) Now I can connect to the target computer in a few steps: 1. connect to middle.host: ssh user@xxxxxxxxxxx 2. and from there: ssh Hiisi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -p 10002 See, it's not very convenient and I'm not sure whether it's possible to use VNC using this setup (as I would like to). So, is there any better solution? -- Hiisi. Registered Linux User #487982.
