Yes, Im running Windows ssh, and after all this frustration, I could write a
book on it. At first I though ssh was the problem, but I am able to use it
on its own quite well. (and will never use Telnet again)
So I read that page about registry entries and made the entry and still no
dice. Its interesting that the way it reads I expected the Reg. Keys to be
there and I would have to change the values. Instead I have to create the
keys. It does not tell me to create a dword, string or binary value and I
am assuming it is a decimal value rather than a Hex.
Either way I have both a VNC 3.3.3 entry and a Win VNC entry in the registry
so I created a key in each. I have tried changing the type Dword to binary
etc. and still no go. It keeps giving me the error local loopback
connections are not allowed.
I tried downloading a new version and re-installing and still nothing.
So now what do I try?

You're right. Good call -- I didn't spot it because I don't have a Windows
ssh server, so it's never come up.

David,
it seems than Neal is running VNC server on MS Windows machine!
Neal,
if the above is true, you have to create the following key
in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ORL\WinVNC3\AllowLoopback=1
The ssh command should look as follows:
ssh -L 5901:127.0.0.1:5900 remotehost
If you want to connect to the VNC Server ONLY through ssh, you can
consider setting the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ORL\WinVNC3\LoopbackOnly=1
More info on keys at http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/winvnc.html
Regards,
Miroslav Luptak
