Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Xming Vs ssh connect to RHEL server from Windows machine Post 302769539 by lupin..the..3rd on Tuesday 12th of February 2013 03:11:45 PM

Xming is an X11 server for Microsoft Windows. Putty is an SSH client. Two different softwares, with different purposes.

If you check the "Enable X11 forwarding" option in Putty, it will allow the remote UNIX server to display X11 GUI programs on your local PC, over the ssh tunnel.... but those X11 gui programs will need an X11 server to connect to; that's Xming.

FYI we use Putty and Xming to manage all our production UNIX and Linux servers at work, they are a nice combination and work very reliably.

Tip: When you start Xming, don't start it using the "Xming" shortcut. Instead, use the "Xlaunch" shortcut, and be sure to check the box for "No Access Control".
