TightVNC and SSH
I would like to connect from a linux machine to a windows machine through a secure SSH tunnel and to be able to copy files to and from securely. How can I do this? Currently I can connect to my clients but just using tightvnc and a password. I need to copy files to and from and I am concerned about interception. Thanks
