Oh man, this is sweet! I was searching for a package that would allow me to run VNC over ssh on my Treo 700wx. Well, I found it! Mocha software has a product (http://www.mochasoft.dk/vncce.htm) that does the ssh connection and renders the VNC session all in one package. I tested it out this morning, it runs very well over EV-DO. It’s $20 for a license with all upgrades included. Needless to say, they already have my $20.
I use this software mainly to control my XM PCR (XM Radio) remotely so I can stream it to my Treo via shoutcast!
Here is the initial setup screen. You use your private IP of the VNC server and put in your pass. To use the SSH tunnel check the box for SSH2.
This is the SSH config. Put in your DNS or IP, port, user/pass for your SSH server here. Then hit OK.
Click OK to connect, you will see a status like this.
If done correctly, you should be in! There are three different zoom levels and the “hand” allows you to move around which I like better than the scrollbars as that just wastes space. There are also shortcuts for ctl+alt+del and other F keys.
Pretty sweet huh?? 🙂
