I have a problem using SSH tunneling using RDP or VNC

1 - I make a connection RDP - VNC with local Server address (ej: 192.168.1.1) of remote computer

2 - I mark Use SSH Tunneling and put ssh server address(ej:200.125.43.32), port, username and password

3 - When i put connect via RDP or VNC, message:

"SSH Port Forwarding connection has been closed

An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host"

Thanks.

I've seen that before. Can you just use something like PuTTY to connect in SSH first? I have found every time I get that error, there's a problem with the passwd file. Go back through the installation and re-dump the users and groups from either AD or the local users database. Once imported properly you shouldn't get that forcibly closed error...
