[QUOTE="javamac, post: 1196206, member: 194246"] I also got the "Sorry, loopback connections are not enabled" error messages when trying to tunnel using TightVnc. This happened right after I upgraded. I found a solution. Insteading of VNC's to 127.0.0.1, change the default port from 5900 to 5901, so in the tightVNC box you will type: localhost:1 (It didn't work when I just used localhost) Of course you have to set up Putty as well to do the forwarding: In putty, under ssh, and then under tunnels, add this: source port: 5901, destination: my-remote-server-that-is-running-vnc-server.com:5900, and then start up putty and then log in.
