Vncserver :1 -geometry 1366x768 -depth 24
I have configured a VNC session on my Linux server with the following command. Enter the Linux Server details in PuTTYįrom the Category section expand “SSH” and select “Tunnels”, enter both the source port as 5901 (any port number will do) and destination as :5901 eg. Leave the port number to 22 if you did not change the default SSH port number on the Linux Server. Open PuTTY and enter the IP address/Hostname of the Linux server. This article assumes that a VNC server software has already been installed on the target Linux computer and a VNC session has been created. First I will show you how this is done through the GUI and then by using command line parameters of PuTTY which are very similar to the “ssh” command in Linux.
This is just an example of tunneling VNC traffic through PuTTY you can tunnel almost any traffic (eg HTTP, FTP) by changing port numbers. This article will show you how to use the popular terminal emulator PuTTY to create a SSH tunnel to pass VNC traffic which is normally unencrypted. The SSH protocol has a unique feature of tunneling other protocols and encrypting them.
