Computer 1: Macbook OSX 10.5.1
VNC sever: Vine Server 3.0
Computer 2: HP work laptop XP SP2
SSH client: putty
VNC Viewer: VNC Viewer 4
Router: 2wire 3800HVG-B gateway
I am able to SSH in just fine and get a terminal session going
however I can't start the VNC session
Port forwarding on router is as follows:
5900 (VNC) to computer 1
22 (SSH) to computer 1
Tunneling in putty is setup:
5900 on computer 2 to 5900 on computer 1
When I try and start the VNC session:
Localhost:0
it just says connections closed unexpectedly. when I look at the VNC server log it never even tries to connect. If it just let it connect directly on 5900 it works fine.
