Hi VNCers, I have a strange problem with a SSH tunneling setup.
I use a similar setup to connect to my office PC from home, but the setup behaves somewhat strange. I want to connect two NT machines, let's call them server and client. I have setup a ssh2 tunnel via cygwin's openssh. I establish a tunnel with ssh -L 5901:server.vocalweb.de:5900 server, which works as expected. I use TightVNC 1.2.2. on both sides. The server has allowloopback and allowloopbackonly checked. When I try to connect to localhost:1 I can't connect (I can check with VNC or with telnet, no RFB prompt). so far so bad ... But now the really strange stuff: when I uncheck allowloopbackonly, the connect to localhost:1 works fine. Any ideas?
