I am trying to screen share to my Mac Server, on my home LAN, remotely via the internet.
I can VNC to my server while on the LAN find with vnc://lanserver:5900
.
I am forwarding port 22 from my DSL to the LAN VNC computer.
I can SSH to the LAN PC through the firewall ok.
I can setup the SSH tunnel, logs:
Authenticated to xx.xxx.xxx.xxx ([xx.xxx.xxx.xxx]:22).
debug1: Local connections to LOCALHOST:5901 forwarded to remote address x.x.x.x:5900
debug1: Local forwarding listening on ::1 port 5901.
debug1: channel 0: new [port listener]
debug1: Local forwarding listening on 127.0.0.1 port 5901.
debug1: channel 1: new [port listener]
debug1: channel 2: new [client-session]
When I try vnc://127.0.0.0.1:5901
on the remote machine, I get a timeout error:
lanserver:~ user$ debug1: Connection to port 5901 forwarding to x.x.x.x port 5900 requested.
debug1: channel 3: new [direct-tcpip]
lanserver:~ user$ channel 3: open failed: connect failed: Operation timed out
I'm out of options trying to find out why the connection times out.
