[05-18-08 17:43]: I have set up a couple of 10.3 systems with Remote Administration enabled, and I believe all necessary ports are open through the Firewall. VNC is also enabled.
These are behind a router, DynDNS redirects the Public IP Address.
There seems to be a plethora of Clients, The Support side client will be Windows XP.
Question: What is the simplest, or most efficient Windows Client for providing Remote Administration on the OpenSuSE box...?
Do I really need cygwin, putty, etc..?
Yes, putty, but it is provided in the package I like. Google for "xming". Simple to set up and easy to use. I installed it on a usb stick and can plug it into any xpee or virsta box and access my home openSUSE box via ssh-putty-xming.
Please elaborate on how-to get Putty to do the reverse/forward thing. I.e., how do you get Putty to (on a windooze box) to set up a reversed forwarded tunnel? On Linux, in a shell, I do: ssh -l vk -L 7777:sles10:3306 sles10 cat - - this opens up a tunnel that lets me access my MySQL server using localhost:7777 and so. How to do that using PuTTY on windoze? -- -------------------------------------------- Med venlig hilsen/best regards Verner Kjærsgaard Novell Certified Linux Professional 10035701 www.os-academy.dk +45 56964223 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
