In order for this to work successfully, ssh must be installed on the same system as vncviewer, and it should be called "ssh" (as exists in OSX and Linux systems, and in mozilla-build on Windows). This instructs vncviewer to set up an ssh tunnel to the account username on the specified host, and then to connect the VNC server for display 0 on localhost (from the point of view of the far end of the connection, i.e., 142.204.133.122 in this case). You can use the -via option to enable this from the command line:
#Ssh tunnel vnc how to
Many of the vncviewer programs know how to set up an ssh tunnel automatically. Getting the VNC Viewer to Set Up the Tunnel You'll need to ask someone who knows what it is! You will need the VNC server password, naturally. Using a vnc client such as TightVNC, select locahost:50005 (or whatever local port you use): Then login to the remote SSH server as you normal would with your userid and password: Click add, go back to sessions and save the session for next time. The 'local' radio button should be selected.
#Ssh tunnel vnc free
The source port is any free and open port on your local machine. The 'destination' port configured in the screen below should be 127.0.0.1:X where X is the VNC server port number. Tunneling you VNC connection over SSH There are two ways you can connect to a remote Linux server: SSh which is the most preferred way of doing it VNC which is also nice but not as nice Well, you. On Linux systems where additional displays are started, the display number will start at 1 and increase with each server started, yielding port numbers of 5901, 5902, 5903, and so forth. Configure this client to connect to the SSH server on machine B, and to forward connections that come to port 5900 on the client machine to port 5900 on machine A. The default VNC display number on single-users systems (such as Mac OSX, Windows, and Linux when mirror the local X Window session remotely) is 0, so the VNC server port on is 5900. In order to securely access the VNC server from a client machine, you need to perform the following steps: Equip the client machine with an SSH port forwarding client. VNC uses a 'display number' which, when added to 5900, yields the port number used by the VNC server. The ssh port is 22 by default.Įnable compression to make the session faster Use the IP address of the remote computer you are connecting to.
