Description Robert P. J. Day 2008-01-06 21:58:28 UTC 
From the man page for "vncviewer":
...
-via gateway
Automatically create encrypted TCP tunnel to the  gateway  machine  before
connection,  connect  to the host through that tunnel (TightVNC-specific).
...

  But the -via option seems to work just fine here, and does not appear to be
TightVNC-specific, which is what the above seems to suggest.  Or am I reading
that incorrectly?
Comment 1 Adam Tkac 2008-03-13 13:45:55 UTC 
It looks you're right. I will remove "TightVNC-specific" string in next release
