IMHO the ssh+tunnel would be the better choice, but SSL itself is also a good choice (if encrypting in-transit data is your goal). its like some sort of stepping stone to get to vnc (and any other service needed). You can leave a comment, or trackback from your own site. If ssh is exposed, it should be hacked first before they would have to reach the vnc.

#Vnc through ssh tunnel x11vnc windows

Connecting to the server via SSH tunnel using PuTTY In Windows systems Under Connection -> SSH -> Tunnels add: Source port: 5901. So, coming back to where we were - to start x11vnc at the login prompt, a typical x11vnc display :0 wouldnвЂ™t work. Port for connection to VNC is: localhost:5901. You can now start topspin or vnmrj (or any other application installed there).Tcp 5900 to 5900 5900 192.168.80.1 port_forward The additional benefit would be that VNC will be passed thru SSH (by means of SSH port forwarding), it will be way more secure than just plain VNC. A new window will appear with the desktop from the spectrometer computer.

#Vnc through ssh tunnel x11vnc password

The next password requested (in a pop-up window) is the VNC password.

You will be prompted (in the terminal) to enter your NMRFAM password.

Enter the NMRFAM spectrometer computer and VNC server number started in step 1 above (e.g.

Start the vncviewer program with the вЂ-viaвЂ™ option to tunnel through login1 (or login2):.

Open a terminal window on your Linux computer On your Linux computer we are going to use vncviewer to connect to the VNC server running on the spectrometer computer.

Access the VNC server from your Linux computer.

NOTE: If you are not вЂњphysicallyвЂќ logged on the spectrometer computer you will get an error message when using x11vnc. VNC uses a 'display number' which, when added to 5900, yields the port number used by the. Enable compression to make the session faster. Use the IP address of the remote computer you are connecting to. However, in AVNC there is an option to use an ssh tunnel.

#Vnc through ssh tunnel x11vnc android

I have SSH working fine to get a remote shell on the machine from my android device.

#Vnc through ssh tunnel x11vnc how to

ssh to the spectrometer computer (e.g. How to connect to a VNC session through a tunnel using putty Create a session profile. I have x11vnc running on my arch Linux machine and AVNC client on my android device.

Open a terminal window on your Linux computer.

NOTE : you must also be вЂњphysicallyвЂќ logged into the spectrometer computer. Start the VNC server on the spectrometer computer remotely from your Linux computer. IMPORTANT: do NOT close the terminal window as this will kill the VNC server you just started. localhost lets x11vnc only accept connections from localhost, which is fine since were using a SSH tunnel.

If you do not wish to use a password for the VNC server, replace the -usepw option with -nopw.

To reset the VNC password, login to the spectrometer computer as shown above and type vncpasswd (it doesnвЂ™t ask you to input the old password to change it, so itвЂ™s not a problem if you forget it).

The VNC password is different from the login password.

Note that with this command the VNC server is protected by a password.

Take note of the VNC server (or desktop) number that was started (e.g. X11vnc -display :0 -usepw -shared -forever -noxdamage Start the VNC server directly on the spectrometer computer before leaving the lab. This can either be done directly on the spectrometer computer or remotely from your computer.

Start a VNC server on the spectrometer computer.

#Vnc through ssh tunnel x11vnc windows 10

IMPORTANT : only the person that is вЂњphysicallyвЂќ logged into the spectrometer computer can use x11vnc to start a VNC server to connect to the spectrometer desktop. Windows 10 does have an SSH client built-in, thanks to the Windows PowerShell, but this is only a recent development.If you want to know how to tunnel VNC through SSH, itвЂ™s recommended you use PuTTY to make the connection to your SSH server. If you are logged on the spectrometer computer, you can use x11vnc to connect to the spectrometer computer desktop. Use x11vnc to connect directly to the spectrometer computer desktop from your Linux computer
