8/10 On a PC you can use something like Exceed to connect to a UNIX
workstation desktop (e.g. CDE). How can you do the same from one
Solaris workstation to another?
\_ You use something like Exceed called X.
\_ duh. The question is "how" not "what".
\_ duh. the answer was "you use...". that's definitely
an answer to a "how".
\_ Sooooo, I am sitting in front of Solaris workstation A
and I would like to login to workstation B. "How" do I
connect to the X server on workstation B from
workstation A?
\_ wow, things have really slipped since i was at cal.
\_ I'm not talking about doing anything like
setenv DISPLAY blah:0.0, I want to see the CDE
login screen of workstation B on workstation
A's display.
setenv DISPLAY blah:0.0 and then running some
X application, I want to see the CDE login screen
of workstation B on workstation A's display. If
you don't know how, it's ok. really.
\_ That's not what you asked. dtremote to
the remote workstation is one way. If CDE,
then from your local console login screen
Options->Remote Login (or something
like that). Being unix, there are other ways.
Then again, my ESP powers are dull so I may
not know what the fuck you are thinking since
you never say. Things "like Exceed" do not
need to redisplay the CDE login screen, but
just select apps. If you are running SSH
you dont need to setenv DISPLAY either.
\_ you are thinking about xdm then. man xdm
to find out more.
\_ thanks. I'll look into that. |
