Re: how do I contact a pc behind a router

Here is how I have Tunnelier configured to access my two XP Pro desktops on
my home LAN...

....via CopSSH and Remote Desktop...

Note that I use a 2048-bit private/public RSA key pair for authentication
(with a strong pass phrase) versus a password (strong or otherwise) for
authentication. I also use a non-default port for SSH connections into my
home LAN.
