I wish internal trackbacks didn’t appear as comments, because one post with many backlinks pretty much carpet-bombs that list.

You folks definitely keep me on my toes by pointing out stuff I didn’t know I didn’t know… plus things I thought I knew that just aren’t so!

For what it’s worth, the #2 response was off the bottom of my daily Blowback list. I learn lots of things I didn’t know I didn’t know on this site.

I’ve had it open on my machine for the best part of a year

So that’s where all those page views came from! [grin]

I’m doing remote support for Mary’s father, so I’m sure it will come in handy again.

Glad to be of assistance…

Awesome article! :)

I’ve had it open on my machine for the best part of a year waiting go get the time to try it. Finally have and worked perfectly.

It’s worth mentioning that “-L 5900:localhost:5900″ should be read as “-L my_computer’s_port 5900 to localhost_on_the_remote_connection_port_5900″.

If you are already running a VNC server on your own machine, you might want to change to “-L 5901:localhost:5900″, then connect to KRDC to port localhost:5901 :)

Thanks for the post
