This is a very interesting question to me. In my own case, I do have SSH
setup thru Cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/) for my local network and I
use VNC thru that connection when I need to manage my own stuff
remotely. However, I have to admit that when I use VNC to aid remote
clients (which happ

Scenario C is assuming the following points.

In all of these scenarios, you do the setup before hand. All of these
scenarios are easily installed, and configured as a tech, and are as
simple as 1-3 clicks for a user, no config, because everything (ssh

The problem is the client. When connecting to a server, you can specify
the port offset from 5900 via "x:" in the connect string. I
don't know how to make the client use a different base.

Well--
1. Don't expose your VNC port on the internet. Just expose the SSH port.
2. If you do connect to the VNC server in question, you're going thru SSH.

I think you are confusing SSH timeouts (which I get sporadically myself
when connecting to my business LAN) with the VNC freeze. In my
experience, the VNC freeze only occurs when the underlying network
connection itself hangs. Although it may appear that the problem is
VNC-related (since you ca
Sure VNC does.
You just set the preferences to allow multiple clients to connect to the
same machine. I do that all the time. Helpful when other developers and
myself both need to look at the desktop for a given remote box with a
problem.

Yes, just bring up "Configure User Mode Options" from VNC Server (User

Bob,
I would agree with you about disconnect. I have exactly the same setup
with the following diffs:
1. If you are only going out (from home to remote), no need for the home
router to do anything with port 22. On my network, port 22 is indeed
going to my local DMZ machine but that's only so
192.168.1.x is always an internal IP.
You want to connect to the external IP addr, and use port forwarding to
connect to your VNC server running on your local machine.
