[Bug 764632] Re: The "Use SSH tunnel" option doesn't work

 

I too can confirm this issue.
I'm running a fresh install of Xubuntu 11.04, vinagre version 2.30.3-1ubuntu2

When trying to connect using the ssh tunnel option I get the "Error
reading from unix: Input/output error" message.

SSH tunneling worked fine before, on Ubuntu 10.10, on the same laptop.

Title:
  The "Use SSH tunnel" option doesn't work

Status in Vinagre: VNC client for GNOME:

Status in “vinagre” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: vinagre

  I get this message:

  Error creating the SSH tunnel
  Error reading from Unix: Input/output error

  I've had this problem in the past but it usually worked if I simply
  retried the connection. Now it happens every time and it won't
  establish the ssh tunnel.

  If I connect to the tunnel host with ssh from the command line that
  works fine, also if I create the tunnel with:

  $ ssh -L5999:h1:5901 me@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  it also works fine when I then connect to localhost:5999 in vinagre.
