Peter what would you recommend for a windows user like myself to experiment with ssh/rdp?

Do this then RDP to 127.0.0.2 Will take some time as you'll need to wait for each telnet to time out, and this is not adjustable in Windows telnet command. Of course you can do the same thing using native ssh with Cygwin or the ssh client for Windows itself (not free for commercial use). cheers, Peter. _______________________________________________ Gpcg_talk mailing list [email protected] http://ozdocit.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gpcg_talk _______________________________________________ Gpcg_talk mailing list [email protected] http://ozdocit.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gpcg_talk
