aru Posted March 14, 2003 Report Share Posted March 14, 2003 I have understood well, you are looking for vnc, but take a look to the following links to see if any of them fits better your needs: --first of all DO IT THROUGH ssh, telnet should be deprecated.-- here is a link to a simple tutorial to start from (includes references to vnc): http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/xwin/xnet.html related to ssh: http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/secure/index.html#s and related to tunneling X through ssh: http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/secure/sssh5.html#x HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spatel Posted March 14, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2003 My client has pc and he wants to see linux desktop from his pc? I know its can be done in Solaris with Exceed but i don't know if you can do it on linx or not? Or Can i just bring telnet on pc and run xstart which will start x on pc?
