Accessing linux/sun machine remotely
Dear All,
i am in a bit problem with using the command "x -query IP_ADDRESS" to get the graphical interface of Solaris into the windows machine.... can anyone of you please tell me what i have to change in the sun machine to get the graphical interface in my windows machine..... Best regards, Shahed |
First, do you have an X server on your Windows host? That will be the first requirement. Kenton Lee has a decent list of X servers for Windows. If you have a properly configured X server, then you should be able to run X client applications on Solaris hosts. I'm not sure if/how you can run the Solaris desktop on a console that is not directly attached to the Solaris host.
I have no idea what "x -query IP_ADRESS" is supposed to do. My 4 or 5 Solaris hosts have no such command as 'x'. --- rod. |
Dear Rod,
i have personnally connected to a remote sun server using cygwin (the command "x -query IP_ADDRESS" is used in cygwin which has a X server) while i was working in a testbed system. This feature works almost like the "Remote Desktop Connection" of windows. unfortunately i don't know what changes are needed to be made in the sun server for this remote access. Looking forward for your reply. best regards, Shahed |
