i have a red hat open ssh server with x11 fowarding enabled, atm i use putty to connect using the ssh, does anyone have much windows experience with x11 cos i have no idea where to go from here, i'm still currently researching but most of the articles i find either aren't for windows or are a bit confusing...
thanx ppl
I haven't done this exactly, but I find that if you install xvncviewer you can simply run VNC Viewer on Windows.
If you want to actually launch programs on Windows and put them onto that X Server, you could install them with Cygwin and use
DISPLAY=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:y <program name>
where x is your IP and y the display number (probably 0).
well heres the thing i want what ever it is to be bortable so i connected to the server with x11 enabled and i got what it said i shoud get on the putty website:
fred@unixbox:~$ echo $DISPLAY
unixbox:10.0
----
i don't want to install stuff on the linux box i just need to run an internet browser from it so i can install vbulletin
---
some one want to explain
?

yes because the link is activated via a java applet to stop unauthorised people downloading it
and i don't just need a web browser that would download it from the server to my computer without saving it on the server
so... why not download it on your computer, and then upload the files to your server? ¬¬
