Run TurboVNC client and server via port forwarding #412

Closed nEghbal closed 1 month ago

Hello,

Is it possible to run the client and server over a tunnel with port forwarding?

Thanks, Nooshin

Yes. The TurboVNC Session Manager, in fact, enables SSH tunneling automatically. You can also use the -tunnel or -via options in the TurboVNC Viewer, either with the viewer's built-in SSH client or an external SSH client (by specifying -extssh.) Refer to the TurboVNC User's Guide and the TurboVNC Viewer help screen (/opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncviewer -? or "c:\Program Files\TurboVNC\vncviewer.bat -?.) The User's Guide describes what the viewer is actually doing when you pass -via or -tunnel to it.
