Why don't you run VNC *over* ssh. Read the ssh man page stuff on tunnels. Essentially, you have vncserver listen only to 127.0.0.1 and you run a tunnel for port 5900, and then connect with the vnc client to 127.0.0.1:5900 (assuming the tunnel is 5900 to 5900). Then you can leave the vnc server running all the time, because you never expose it to the outside world. You can use the same trick to tunnel any TCP-based protocol, including rcon. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
