Gnome RDP using SSH tunelling

Hi.
I'm trying to connect to a gnome remote desktop session from a windows machine in an external network using windows RDC and ssh tunneling.
I have my ssh connection set up and I use it frequently. I connect using:

ssh soft@{address} -p 46329 -i {key file}

So, using that as a base I tried to use ssh tunneling as:

ssh -L 3399:{address}:3389 soft@{address} -p 46329 -i {key file}

And then I tried to connect in RCD as localhost:3399, but didn't worked.

I already tested the remote desktop inside the local network and it worked with no problem, so I guess I made a mistake in the ssh tunneling as it's the first time trying to use it.
My router only has the port 46329 open.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Re: Gnome RDP using SSH tunelling

What's the actual error message? Anything beyond "Didn't work"?
