Re: Tunneling to a third host

unfortunately this will not work since none of the machines have a
telnet server running. the gateway computer only has ssh server and
port 22 open. so i need to ssh into that box.

any other ieads?

telnet localhost 5902

The "host_user@" should not be there; there is no authentication involved
in making a TCP connection. VNC will run on top of that and do whatever
authentication is needs to.
