Basically, if you are connecting from one Linux box to another, you can use a login line like this: shh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED] Then once logged in you can do things like: firefox & and firefox will run on the remote machine, but the gui will appear on the local machine. This is fast on a LAN but there is still lag over the net. For remote GUI NX cannot be beat for speed, I have a legit bought copy, though I almost never use it, ssh is still all I really need. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFES+N7wRXgH3rKGfMRAmJmAJ4xh2Oxt+VyHRB/u2x4LUmAk6fVgACgkn4S gkvXkPEw+vZjsh7+f9tUDXo= =TJps -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
