Weird. Do you have also: ssh: connect to host ... port 3022: Connection refused > If I use the format I show, it works just fine. With "vncviewer SERVERNAME:1 -via localhost" you are first opening an ssh tunnel to localhost. This is useless. I guess you can connect directly with: vncviewer SERVERNAME:1 A way to see how vncviewer setup the ssh tunnel: strace -s 1000 -f -e execve vncviewer SERVERNAM:1 -via localhost \ |& grep 'execve("/usr/bin/ssh"' -- francis _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
