[QUOTE="stevieg_83, post: 1164225, member: 184972"] Hi folks, hopefully someone will be able to help. At work I run on Windows XP, I'm able to connect to my home network through SSH and onto another Windows box with remote desktop. From that Windows box I'm then able to use VNC to remote desktop to my Mac :D However, I'd rather just connect from my work PC to the Mac. I added some port forwarding rules on the router and also some tunnel rules for SSH but when I try to connect using VNC I get "Sorry, loopback connections are not enabled". How can I enable loopback connections and will that solve my problem? Thanks in advance, Steven [/QUOTE]
