we are currently investigating another bug report about RDP + SSH port forwarding problem. It's a bit different from your, but I suspecting they might be caused by same bug. I'll let you know about outcome of the investigation.

No and it can't be that as the only thing thats changed is the version of vncmanager im using , same laptop same network same ssh server same rdp server.

if i open putty and configure ssh to tunnel rdp to the server then use windows rdp client it works fine.

[quote]I connect on ip and not host name , would that make a difference?[/quote]It wouldn't. Could it be that the SSH server cannot access RDP server address?

No its not a firewall setting as it works in previous versions from same machine/lan to same machine/lan

Ive also switch off the local firewall.

i get

No such host is known

I connect on ip and not host name , would that make a difference?

Owain,
I just tried to run RDP viewer with SSH server listening on 222 port. It worked just fine.

Perhaps it could be a firewall that blocks connections on the port?

hi, latest version 3.5.18 doesn't allow ssh on vnc or rdp ; shows "Establishing ssh connection to ip" then popup appears saying no such host is known.

i'm using port 222 as ssh not 22 ; maybe this is a problem though it worked in previous candidate release and stable version.

i need to use 222 as its connecting to a smoothwall firewall.

Cheers Owain

Thanks for the report! After several attempts I managed to crash it too.

We should fix this problem in the next 3.5.17.3 build.

PS: since v3.5 is still in Beta, please post v3.5 bug to the corresponding beta forum. I'll move this post to the v3.5 Bugs subforum.
