I'm running Zebedee 2.5.3 perfectly fine on Vista SP1 (client) and XP
SP3 (server). I've successfully tunneled to a SOCKS server, HTTP
proxy, and VNC server that I set up. I've tunneled from the office,
and also from public wi-fi hotspots. Also done file transfers both
ways, via Ultravnc.

For Vista, my UAC is set to "quiet mode". On the XP server, I've set a
firewall exception for the zebedee.exe app, and not just a specific
port.

However, I did encounter "screen freeze" problems with certain
versions of VNC, namely Tightvnc and Realvnc. I switched to Ultravnc
(http://www.uvnc.com), and everything's been working fine so far. Not
sure who's to blame for the freezes; maybe the other VNCs don't like
to be tunneled?

>I have gotten zebedee reverse tunnels to work flawlessly linux <-> linux and
linux <-> XP. I am having trouble getting it to work on Vista. With Vista, i
get the following output and I see 3 packets passed between the two machines
but the tunnel doesn't work. I am using the same config files as the two
above scenarios that work. All machines are on the same local network so
there is no firewall involved. UAC is turned off as well.
