Cygwin SSH through a router? (was RE: Remote KDE desktop over SSH?)
I use PuTTY on a Win98 machine to connect to my home machine behind a
router, tunnelling VNC over SSH. Is it possible to tunnel through a router
using Cygwin/SSH and get an X desktop?
I like VNC (especially TightVNC), but I've found it to be a bear to set up.
:-) I often lose the ability to dial in to the machine, and I'm not quite
sure why. Is the Cygwin/SSH solution easier and more robust? Is it faster?
Regards,
Kevin Griffis

Oh, that kind of helped. Now I gotta wonder if Knoppix will start X
in failsafe mode for me somehow so i don't have a WM in the way. I'll
give that a shot tonight when I have more time.
