I can start vncserver successfully and connect from a remote

a grey screen with cursor.

Yes I use to run vnc and I had a plethora of scripts and utilities that

spent countless hours perfecting. Wow it really works so well... Then

came

ssh!  I set it up to do public-private key authentication.  Now, I no

longer

use vnc at all.

there features of ssh with which i am unfamiliar?  (probably, yes).
