How to use X11 forwarding with putty
- by Neuquino
I have a VM with RHEL 5 without an X server.
My host has Windows 7.
I need to connect to the VM and redirect the X11 output of the commands to my host.
I know that if my host were a GNU/Linux machine it would be as easy as ssh -X .
I'm ussing PuTTy to connect by SSH to the VM, I tried enabling X11 forward option in PuTTy config, but nothing happened.
Have you ever done this? I'm quite advanced with GNU/Linux, but a newbie with this toy of Winbug$ 7.
