Hello, I have setup ssh tunnel from a linux workstation to a linux server to use secure VNC. It works so far good, the only problem is that it is a bit slow. I would like to ask you for suggestion on optimizing the the tunnel and/or the vnc server. Both computers have enough cpu power and very fast internet connections, so it would not be a problem if the optimization includes high cpu usage or high broadband usage... here are my configs: VNC server is started with the following options: Code: tightvncserver -geometry 800x600 -depth 15 :1 xstartup: Code: #!/bin/sh xrdb $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid grey x-terminal-emulator -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & gnome-session & the ssh tunnel gets started from the workstation with the following options: Code: ssh -f -N -L 5901:localhost:5901 username@server Thanks!
