I can not seem to get Putty to cooperate at all for X-Windows.
As long as you configure Putty to do X11 forwarding, the only other
requirements are that:
* the remote host needs to allow X11 forwarding
Think you pegged it Frank, I need to study up on that
* xauth needs to be in your path on the remote host
Loging in as root so that should not be a problem ( I think).
* the local system needs an X11 server that is configured to allow
connections from localhost
The problem is that all of those suggested need X-Windows to download.
Kinda like the Post Office in Brooklyn (OK, Old Joke).
I think you'll find the NX client easier to install if you can run
freenx on the server side. Aside from the speed advantage for remote
connections, it has a big advantage in being able to keep a session
running when you disconnect and reconnect.
