VNC require the flag -bgr233. For examples on using this flag, review the
commands in the following section.
SSH Tunnel (with Native VNC client)
If you are using Openssh, the following Unix command is appropriate
based on the default settings on a machine at 10.0.0.34:
ssh -f -l admin -L 15900:127.0.0.1:5900 10.0.0.34 sleep 60
vncviewer -bgr233 127.0.0.1::15900
Same command, but using the WAN port:
ssh -f -l admin -L 15900:127.0.0.1:5900 10.0.0.98 sleep 60
vncviewer -bgr233 127.0.0.1::15900
Notes:
A copy of these commands, with appropriate values filled in for your
current system setting, is provided in the on-line help page. This allows
you to "cut-and-paste" the required commands accordingly.
You have 60 seconds to type the second command before the SSH
connection will be terminated.
The port number "15900" is arbitrary in the above example and can be
any number (1025...65535). It is the port number used on your client
machine to connect your local SSH instance with the VNC client. If
you want to tunnel two or more systems, you will need to use a unique
number for each instance on the same SSH client machine.
Some Unix versions of the VNC client have integrated SSH tunneling
support. Some clients require your local user id to be the same as the
userid on the system.
Use a command like this: vncviewer -bgr233 -tunnel 10.0.0.34:22
