Hiya folks,
can someone pls provide me with an idiot's guide to getting X11 running
over ssh.
That is to say, I want to be able to ssh into a Linux box from Windows
(or MAC or Linux natively - but primarily Windows) using putty and then
have the gui come up for me.
I know I could use VNC, but;
1. I have to be able to use std ports to get thru corporate firewalls and
2. I would like to have that connection secure
And as best I can tell VNC doesn't support ssh; not to mention I
wouldn't know how to send it through a std port without interfering with
other services on those ports.
I have attempted to understand how to do it using putty, but I seem to
get lost. Can anyone suggest an idiot proof tutorial or some such which
actually refers to up-to-date versions and processes/requirements?
