I have tried to use SSH as specified in the documentation for encrypting my VNC
session.
I have succesfully installed OpenSSH on two Linux PCs and I can SSH between the
two just fine.
(PC1 is client and PC2 is server)
On establishing the redirection from PC1 using:
ssh -L 5802:home.dns.entry:5801 home.dns.entry
I get prompted for the VNC password and allowed in OK. I now have a SSH
terminal session on PC2.
I then try to open a VNC connection from PC1 using the netscape browser at the
following URL:
http://localhost:5802
I get an error message on PC1 stating that "a network error occured while
Netscape was receiving data.(Network error: broken pipe) Try connecting again.
On my PC2 ssh terminal session, I get the following error:
"channel_open_failure:2 reason 1: bla bla"
The connection works fine without the encryption. I.E:
http://home.dns.entry:5801
Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong?
Serge.
