I guess I didn't phrase things carefully enough. I understand that Xwindows is not included, etc. What was trying to say that the utility of being able to SSH into a Windows machine seems to have limited utility to me since 99% of all the programs that runs on that platform are GUI only. At that point, using something like Rdesktop only makes sense but then you don't need SSH anymore. Make sense? > As for Mark Shuttleworths decision to do this, well, you'd have to ask > him, but I can think of many advantages for Canonical to make such a move. Well.. that would be an interesting conversation and I doubt we would agree on much (Unity, constantly churning things, etc) ;-) --David KI6ZHD ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of your business applications.
