I expect to be able to securely connect to the VNC server running on my_server using 'vncviewer my_workstation:1'. It doesn't work though. Has anybody got VNC or other connections to work similar to the way I described here, using Sergey Okhapkin's implementation of SSH V1.2.26? Your help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Borre Sanders. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Send a message to cygwin-unsubscribe AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com
