I am using windows with putty/ssh and would like to be able to run yast2 and other GUI thru putty and have the window come up on the windows box. I thought I had to install xming, but not sure. I was looking on google but I dont know the name for want I want.
I have seen some people do this before and it would be nice so I don’t have to go to the box to set some things like a static default gateway. (since I can’t find the file to set it)
Thanks for the help.
Why not using the ncurses version of yast ? Works fine in putty you know.
If you really want the GUI than you will need an X server running on your windows box, start X11 forwarding in putty to the IP and console screen of you X server in windows.
Tutors about this can be found on google.
Better run NX client after installing NX server on the Linux machine.

And for an example, Google for ‘xming’ (among others).
Good luck.

I found it. I had XMING installed. I couldn’t find the what I needed to enable of the command to allow the transfer. I found a site with the demonstration. I need to check the option in putty>ssh>X11-Enable X11 Forwarding.
