I'd like to access a PC behind a firewall with VNC. I initiate a link from the PC behind the firewall. This tunnel should always be enabled. Then I use VNCClient on my home PC and connect to localhost:6000 which is linked to the firewalled PC-s VNC server port. Is it possible and if so, how? The server and client roles are a bit mixed up here....
I think I get what you are trying to do...sounds like access a work PC via VNC from your home PC. Much like a VPN.
You could simply implement a true VPN or to go the stunnel route you need to do the following:
At work:
Open the specified port you will use for your tunnel on the firewall.
NAT the port request to the work PC to port 6000 (or whatever you wanna use for VNC)
Install stunnel in server mode on the work PC
At home:
Install stunnel as client on the home PC.
That should do it......
