Disclaimer: my only experience with LH is on a Windows box, but I have a lot of
experience pushing bits around on Unix platforms. So, here goes the 5000’
overview...
On the LH box:
It can be headless, but needs all the X11 dependencies that make LH work;
supporting libraries, etc. it does NOT need an actual X server or GUI
installed.
On the remote box:
You need an X Server installed and obviously graphical capability. Then the
procedure - generally - is to ssh into the LH box with X11 forwarding enabled.
Then you execute LH and it’s display shows up on the remote box. There are
security details with this; you’ll probably need to type a command to allow the
LH box to connect to your X server.
There are other ways of making the connection using xdm and such as well. It
really depends on what exactly you’re dealing with.
