Hi, Illen need remote access to a box behind a firewall. Security is a
requirement.
On a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being totally insecure and 10 being totally
secure, how would you rate the following
1. Using VNC from a computer anywhere on the internet connecting to a
computer sitting behind a firewall. The firewall passes traffic on port
5900 to a specific computer on the LAN.
2. The same basic setup as above, except using ssh to forward port 5900
to the specific machine behind the firewall.
