| Jul 11, 2013 at 2:48 | comment | added | prateek61 | Sure - not a problem. Glad it worked out! | |
| Jul 11, 2013 at 2:22 | comment | added | MountainX | @prateek61 - if you answer this question I'll accept your answer since your comment helped me solve it. | |
| Jul 10, 2013 at 15:49 | comment | added | MountainX | @prateek61 - I had been reading all the marketing claims about VNC and they gave me the impression it would be fast. Regarding NX, I had read that the server component has to have a public IP address. But after reading your comment I just found NoMachine over SSH/Netcat proxy. So I guess I will try that next. | |
| Jul 10, 2013 at 11:35 | comment | added | prateek61 | Hey - just to give you a heads up, VNC is generally slow. I have tried a lot to adjust settings but sometimes even on a direct connection it is pretty slow. I would try freenx.berlios.de if you want something a little faster. | |
| Jul 10, 2013 at 6:37 | comment | added | MountainX | @prateek61 - Thanks! I got it working without nc. :-) But vnc is a lot slower than TeamViewer. It's almost unusable. Hopefully I can tweak the settings and get it much better. But I'm very happy to have solved this after a lot of work. Thank you. | |
| Jul 10, 2013 at 5:01 | comment | added | prateek61 | Can you try doing the second step without doing the nc? That is - do the VNC with just the -L and -R. I believe the issue is that your netcat session is connecting back to an already open. So when doing the VNC stuff don't use netcat. | |
| Jul 10, 2013 at 2:04 | comment | added | MountainX | @Marco The full and meaningful name of the links is provided in the side bar to the right of the article. However, in most cases, I also agree with you, but my question is already so long I used short link names on purpose this time. | |

| Jul 9, 2013 at 20:58 | comment | added | MountainX | @Tim this is a reverse SSH tunnel and it is required because desktop is behind a NAT router and laptop is behind a NAT router. | |
| Jul 9, 2013 at 20:25 | comment | added | Tim | This seems incredibly convoluted. I use the remote desktop of my Windows 8 machine by SSH'ing to a machine also on the same network that has a port open in the firewall to it. | |
| Jul 9, 2013 at 20:11 | comment | added | MountainX | @slm - see some of the links in my question. They are some of my related questions. I'm still trying to achieve a solution and each question seems to be getting me closer... | |
