Re: [trinity-devel] krdc and ssh

There shouldn't be anything krdc specific about it. The main thing you need to know is the TCP port number for VNC this is 5900 (for display 0, display 1 will have 5901, etc.) and for RDP this is 3389. To set up an SSH tunnel, you use the following syntax: ssh -L localport:remotehost:remoteport user@hostname This will forward remotehost's remoteport to localport over the SSH connection establish with hostname. The alternative: ssh -R remoteport:a_localhost:a_localhostport user@hostname This will forward everything to remoteport on hostname from a_localhost:a_localhostport. This would be a reverse tunnel. If you have a system with both VNC and SSH running on it, you could use this: ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 user@system_with_vnc+ssh And then use localhost:0 (which would be localhost, port 5900) to connect in krdc. If you would already run a local VNC server, go up one port: ssh -L 5901:localhost:5900 user@system_with_vnc+ssh and in krdc use localhost:1 If you detail your specific sitation a bit, I could explain it better I guess.
