After opening putty, you can set up a session with tunneling as follows:
- In configuration window, on the left, find "SSH" and expand it. From there choose "Tunnels."
- Add a tunnel from the localhost:5829 to twist:5929 by typing 5929 as "Source Port" and twist.phys.virginia.edu:5929 as "Destination." Make sure the radio button "Local" is elected and click "Add."
- In the left-hand pane, so back to "Session." In hostname put "twist.phys.virginia.edu" port 22. Name the session and save it, then open. Input the standard sane login and password.
- With the tunnel thus established, open your VNCviewer, with the server "localhost:5929".
- If using VNC, make sure it is set to "Share". This is under 'Options'.
