Hi

I am a Mac OS X 10.2 user. I need to tunnel VNC through SSH to remote
support 5 Pc's running Me and XP on a DSL connected LAN.

I believe I need to

1. Configure port forwarding for SSH on the DSL Router.
2. Install some form of SSH onto one or all of the PC's
3. Tunnel from my Mac ( using the built in OpenSSH )

Am I right or do I need to do more. Are there any good How-to
resources I can refer to?

Any advice welcomed. I dont necessarily wnat helkp to do it , more
help to help myself.

Cheers
Simon
