I've recently started using AT&T's windows based VNC viewer (http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc) and I'm trying to use it with cygwin's ssh. I use this command to open the ssh to the remote machine and listen on the ports documented. ssh -v -C -L 5902:edin_kampala:5901 edin_kampala then I open the vncviewer: vncviewer localhost:2 and I get the debug output (because of the -v on the ssh line) debug1: Connection to port 5902 forwarding to edin_kampala port 5901 requested. debug1: fd 8 setting O_NONBLOCK debug1: fd 8 IS O_NONBLOCK debug1: channel 2: new [direct-tcpip] debug1: channel 2: open confirm rwindow 32768 rmax 16384 so something's working. But I don't get the vncviewer's prompt for a password. Has anyone else tried this and got it working? I found one thread recently, but I couldn't follow it and I wasn't sure if they were using a windows or cygwin-xfree based vncviewer. I don't really need to use the ssh, but as I'm all ready connected to the machine using ssh, I thought why not use it for the vncviewer too!
