Scripts to set up tunneling for VNC or Mac screen sharing
A machine with SSH is needed to act as proxy. It needs to be reachable from both the guest and the host.
The parties should configure the proxy as PROXY=user@foobar.example.com
in ~/.screen-sharing.config and need to have a method of logging in
(for example, the password of user@foobar.example.com, or SSH keys set up).
You can also configure VNC_SERVER_PORT on the host side in that same
file, in case VNC is not running at port 5900.
Installation
Install the configuration file and your public SSH key by running
$ ./install.sh
Usage
After configuring, on the host side (which is sharing its screen), run:
$ ./host.sh
or double click the Host app.
On the guest side (which is connecting to the shared screen), run:
$ ./guest.sh
or double click the Guest app.
