PuTTY lets you set up all kinds of special options, tied to which host

it's <strong>a pretty powerful GUI for all this</strong>, and provides a
Unix build.

why u don't use freeNX from nomachine website(googling it for latest version)

I think it needs to run on the remote machine too, and I don't have any control
over that.


The ssh daemon on the host machine is usually activated by default, have
a look at the man page (man ssh) for ssh capabilities...

As a taster to open a remote session in a new window in any konsole
session enter...

ssh -Xf <servername> <command>

will work if you have configured X to accept remote sessions on the
server. This will log you in with the current username and run <command>
(xterm will give a new terminal)...

ssh -Xf <username>@<servername> <command>

will log you in as <username> on server <servername>. BTW Do not attempt
to login as root. Login and su to root...

In both cases you will get a certificate dialog the first time you
login. But this will set up the ssh session as a background process,
retaining your local console. If command is a script you can do some
rather interesting things...

PuTTY versions exist for Windows and Symbian OS and other system that
have very little ssh support. It has nothing like the potential
functionality of the *NIX ssh interface, because you can get the
functionality of the host X desktop (within some limits). Effectively
your machine becomes an X-Terminal, but retaining local functionality,...

Windows users should explore Cygwin as this will allow you to run ssh
and do things like run YaST on a Windows desktop... (can confuse a few
people :-) )....
