How can I access the RH GUI console from Windows?


I have access to a RH ES4 server remotely via VPN. I can use putty on my windows xp PC and use ssh to login to a terminal session just fine. What I would also like is to be able to get to the GUI interface. Is VNC the way to go or perhaps an x-windows emulator< I'd appreciate any suggestions...

TIA,

Al

vnc is the easiest. you can also use freenx, which is a substantial evolution on from it. also yes you could use an XDMCP client, such as that available via cygwin/X
