Rob1n,

Thanks for all your hard work with this. I followed your posts and got everything running securely, excellent.

Do you know if it is possible to write a script of sorts that I could use that would automate the x-terminal/VNC viewer logging in stuff with one click?

Any information regarding this would be great.

Thank you.

Pick an editor - there's quite a few available on the N900. vi/vim are simple if you already know them, otherwise Leafpad is a nice basic GUI editor. There's several others as well, but those are the only ones I've tried.

it worked, so simple! but now it says: connect to host myname.dyndns.org port 522 connection refused
does it mean the router settings must be changed?

Possibly. If you can, I'd test on the internal network first (from another PC, or via WLAN). If not, you'll have to check the router is forwarding properly and that the PC is running the SSH server and listening on the correct port. It also may be that your ISP is blocking access.
