How can I connect to X-servers via Putty SSH client?
Connection with VNC and SSH Port Forwarding through an SSH tunnel
- Use Putty to login to your Linux box/server.
Launch a vncserver
vncserver -geometry 1920x1080 # The first time you will be asked to set a VNC password
Remember your session number. In the example below it is number 1:
New 'X' desktop is mylinuxbox:1
- Now you can exit your Putty SSH Terminal
.
- Open the PuTTY configuration window again
Go to SSH >> X11 in the left part of the window
Check Enable X11 forwarding
Go to SSH >> Tunnels and enter Source port: 5901. Furthermore add the following Destination: 127.0.0.1:5901
Go back to Session, enter a host name and a session name under "Saved Sessions" and click at "Save".
Now start your VNC client and point to 127.0.0.1:5901 and enter your VNC password from above.
Once your work is done and you would like to disconnect, enter the following command in a terminal on your Linux box/server
vncserver -kill :1
In case of other running VNC servers, your session number could be higher than :1. In this case, go again through all the steps from above with the current session ID and change all numbers written in bold.
