Hi there,

I have a situation where a vnc client from windows can connect to a vnc 
server on windows (both win7). But from a Linux client (Fedora 14 or 15) 
it won't work.

The windows server runs Tightvnc and freesshd. On the windows client, 
both the native and the java tightvnc viewer works. tigervnc also works 
fine. I use putty to create the ssh tunnels

On the linux client, I tried tigervnc (which is the one included by 
Fedora) and the tigervnc java viewer, both failed. tigervnc (vncviewer 
command) fails with:

  CConn:       connected to host localhost port 5900
  main:        End of stream

The Java tightvnc viewer gives EOFException

I know the ssh connection works on linux because I can type cmd.exe 
commands. If I use the native ssh client (openssh) the ssh connections 
is terminated when any vnc client tried to connect with errror:

buffer_get_ret: trying to get more bytes 4 than in buffer 0
buffer_get_string_ret: cannot extract length

But if I use putty on linux the ssh connection keeps working (I can 
still type commands) but the vnc clients won't work on the tunnel.

Any hints?
