Hello everyone,
I have the following problem:
I am remotely administrating a project on a Ubuntu VPS, which relies on GUI applications.
The anonymity of the TOR-network is essential, so I SSH out of my Whonix WS.
The difficulty lies with displaying said GUI-applications, as far as I know there are the two alternatives, tunneling VNC through SSH or using SSH X11 forwarding.
SSH X11 is argued against in Whonix SSH wiki, I quote “Forwarding X11 is not a good idea”. I wonder why, but it doesnt really matter since it is incredibly slow to the point of being unusable if routed through TOR.
Tunneling VNC through SSH yields better, but still pretty unusable results.
Is there any secret potion I am missing, any best practices for people running GUI apps through SSH over TOR or am I just shit out of luck then?
Thank you for your help everyone.
