remote access

[uber_tom]

Ok, i'm kinda new at this so bare with me.

I have set up SSH, SFTP and remote desktop access on my Linux box to enable me to connect from work, to help slake my boredom.

However i would like some advice on remote sound and port tunnelling, bearing in mind that my work computer is a windows box and i cant install much software.

So essentially remote sound would be nice but my main priority is getting the remote desktop (VNC port 5900) though port 22.

At work i'm using putty, filezilla and TightVNC, at home SuSE 10.1 with Krfb and open ssh.

have you even looked at google or Wikipedia?

It's called tunneling.

You tell, with the -L switch I believe, that everything you do to port 12345 on your local machine will get tunneled over your SSH connection and repeated on the remote host port 54321.

That should be more than sufficient to get sane results out of Google & friends.

Thanks Max but rdp is a windows protocol and is of little use to me.

Would i open myself up for abuse if a said i didn't know what an isa server is? i take it its not a server bult on an isa mboard, although that would give me an excuse to use my SB16 (i refuse to throw it away).

i think i'm getting the jist of port fowarding, do i have to set it up client, server side or both?

[cooper]

You'll want to set up both.

And ISA Server is Microsoft's Internet Security and Accelerator servier. Caching proxy, firewall, and plugins that will make it do more than you would sensibly need.
