Display to PC via ssh/putty (RHE 5)
Hi all,
I just installed Red Hat Enterprise and I would like to have the KDE/GNOME windows display to my PC. When I am root (via ssh, putty) I type startx but it fails. I'm not sure what has to be configured!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi guys,
I got this problem with NMON unable to display all the statistics specified via putty.
I believe this is due to libncurses rather than NMON and also the env variable $TERM.
Currently, the $TERM is set to "xterm" which should be compatible with NMON display.
Is there any ways that... (0 Replies)

gnome-ssh-askpass
GNOME-SSH-ASKPASS(1) General Commands Manual GNOME-SSH-ASKPASS(1)
NAME
gnome-ssh-askpass - prompts a user for a passphrase using GNOME
SYNOPSIS
gnome-ssh-askpass
DESCRIPTION
gnome-ssh-askpass is a GNOME-based passphrase dialog for use with OpenSSH. It is intended to be called by the ssh-add(1) program and not
invoked directly. It allows ssh-add(1) to obtain a passphrase from a user, even if not connected to a terminal (assuming that an X display
is available). This happens automatically in the case where ssh-add is invoked from one's ~/.xsession or as one of the GNOME startup pro-
grams, for example.
In order to be called automatically by ssh-add, gnome-ssh-askpass should be installed as /usr/bin/ssh-askpass.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following environment variables are recognized:
GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_GRAB_SERVER
Causes gnome-ssh-askpass to grab the X server before asking for a passphrase.
GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_GRAB_POINTER
Causes gnome-ssh-askpass to grab the mouse pointer using gdk_pointer_grab() before asking for a passphrase.
Regardless of whether either of these environment variables is set, gnome-ssh-askpass will grab the keyboard using gdk_keyboard_grab().
