Hello all!
Is there a way to remotely controll a YAST session from aanother box? I have a server i want to be able to run YAST on from time to time, but i dont want to have to log into a shell on it (neither locally nor via ssh). So i am looking for a "remote way" to do the configs etc. A little like the admin snapins for a win200 server...
Am i making any sense?
No. You could run YaST on a remote X-server, but what do you do when a daemon config needs to be reloaded after YaST finishes? Remotely reboot? Better get used to ssh and a shell if you want to admin a Linux box remotely or local.

That's what i do today, but thats not exactly what i want. :( That needs yast to be installed on the remote computer. I sort of want yast to be installed only on the administrative box, and just change the coresponding files on the remote. That way i can have a very minimal install on the remote, and full X with all the bells and whistles for running yast on my workstation/administrative box. -- /Rikard ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rikard Johnels email : rjhn@linux.nu Web : http://www.rikjoh.com Mob : +46 70 464 99 39 ------------------------ Public PGP fingerprint ---------------------------- < 15 28 DF 78 67 98 B2 16 1F D3 FD C5 59 D4 B6 78 46 1C EE 56 >
