Hello Sir,

I am using Redhat Linux 9.0, and Windows 2000 Professional Machine.

In Windows 2000 Professional Machine i am using putty software.

How to connect GUI Mode in Linux using SSH.

Whether if any cofiguration changes in Redhat Linux Server or putty software.

That means

Windows 2000 --> Putty --> Linux 9.0 Graphice Mode.

I want to access remote login in Linux Server (GUI Mode) using SSH (Putty Software)

Please Help me

Thank You

Take a look at: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/XDMCP-HOWTO/ssh.html - 3. X11 Forwarding using SSH
Note that you need to have a X server installed on your windows machine (exceed, XWin32, Cygwin - Xfree86)

If you want to control the windows desktop from the linux machine, you could install vnc on both. Perhaps krdc will connect directly to windows remote desktop but I don't know for sure. Also, If you have the home edition, you can only do it one way using windows.
I don't know how secure this would be however.

How to Solve it?

If you want to have an x session or an individual window running on the Linux system but displayed on the windows system, you need an X server running in windows. Such as X-win or Cygwin-x. You can install TightVNC on windows if you want to share the kde desktop. The first option is using an x-terminal in windows, and is a new display. The second option is running the terminal on the Linux machine and sharing it to the Windows machine.
