Remote Access via X/ssh

[Carlos Yáñez]

Hi,
I've got a HPUX11.00 box and it is my intention to remote access it via ssh and execute graphical applications.
My first attempts were from a WinXP computer using GNU/GPL XWinLogon (a Xserver+ssh reduced version of cygwin) but I only got a bunch of errors and warnings.

I've configured sshd_config file and do the proper configs about X server according general ssh instructions.

What else have I to do?

Run sshd -ddd and then try to connect. does it give any errors?? From cygwin's ssh, can you just do ssh -X user@host and try??

Hi,

We have many unix machines and here is what we do.

We have Humming bird installed on our laptops and first we start the Hummingbird then used a PuTTY session with X11 forwarding.

It works perfectly. PuTTY can be downloaded free from net.

You need to allow X11Forwarding in the sshd_config, and then call the client

# ssh -CXt user@host

I'm using this from both linux to HP-UX (both 11.00 and 11.11) and from Cygwin (a free unix env with both X11 client and server on win32) and it works fine

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn
