What is the simplest way to do this?  I was initially advised to try
PuTTY, which was just as good at getting me into a shell as telnet,

PuTTY won't help the X window from your client on the SparcStation
display on your PC's screen AFAIK.


You still need an X server like Xming on the windows PC, the X11 forwarding can be done with PuTTY.

I have Xming on my Windows PC and when I SSH to a linux server/desktop using PuTTY with the X11 forwarding enabled it works fine.

I have no idea if this would work with SparcStation.
