Okay Karim... Beware: you are "hung" up on the word "reverse". You are assuming it's meaning, but there are 2 "reverse"s here, and you should only be using one. Often you use the wrong one!
Because of this you are getting a lot of conflicting answers on this list. Now that I got your attention: ================= I assume I know what you want, namely: You are trying to do is a "VNCServer add client" on your WorkPc, to connect to a "vncviewer in listen mode" on your home pc. This is often called a "reverse" vnc connection. It has nothing to do with an SSH "reverse" tunnel. If this is not what you want to do, delete the rest of the email now! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you get this far then my assumptions are right. The way you do this is as follows: 1) on homepc start your vncviewer in listen mode. 2) send your email that kicks off the "reverse connect script" on your workpc. 3) the "reverse connect script" then starts ssh connection to home-pc, with parameters "-L 5501:127.0.0.1:5500". 4) the "reverse connect script" then does "add client" to connect to vncviewer at home with command "vncserver -connect 127.0.0.1:1" And you can work from home! I assume that you can only ssh out of the office, and that is why you are doing things this way. It would have been a lot easier if you can ssh into the office from home. Jerry P.S. Hope I got it right! _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list VNC-List@realvnc.com To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
