Re: Port Forwarding -- Checking to be sure I understand it


There's a lot of convoluted stuff in your post, including
misunderstandings that I'm not going to unravel just now. I'll just
suggest:

- Your friend runs the VNC server on his computer.

- If his firewall does not allow outbound connections on the normal SSH
port, but you think he can use port 443, then you configure your SSH
server to listen on 443.

- He does: "ssh -R 590<x>:localhost:5900 -p 443 <your SSH server>"

- You point your VNC client (on the SSH server machine) to display
localhost:<x>.
