Ah, OK.  The built-in SSH client in the TurboVNC Viewer won't support that, but you should still be able to use OpenSSH by passing -extssh to /opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncviewer.  That will mimic the behavior of TigerVNC, since it also uses the external SSH client.

    I can't reproduce the issue.  If I add, for example:

    Host my_fake_server_name
      HostName {my_server_ip_address_or_real_server_name}
      User drc

    to ~/.ssh/config, then executing

      /opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncviewer -via my_fake_server_name
    localhost:{my_display_number}

    works as expected.  Can you post the relevant entry from your
    ~/.ssh/config file? Perhaps there is a bug that I'm not
    encountering for some reason.

    I started testing TurboVNC on OL8 this weekend.  Immediately I
    noticed it seem to start up gnome exclusively,  Hoiw can I get it
    to start MATE or Xfce? I did this readily with TigerVNC and
    ~/.vnc/xstartup but TurboVNC seems to use a different approach. 
    Even a link to some documentation would be appreciated.

    Also when I try to connect using the version of vncviewer included.

    /opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncviewer -via uek8desktop01 localhost:1001

    I get the error:

    Could not create SSH tunnel
    java net.UnknownHostException uek8desktop01

    I am guessing this is because TurboVNC's vncviewer does not use
    ~/.ssh/config file to expand the alias. The TigerVNC version
    connects as expected which is how I know that TurboVNC is
    starting up Gnome

    I am using version 2.2.6-20210221 from the yum repo.
