A gnome session is launched by UserA of System A, I am connected to userB of System B(or A) through PUTTY. I want to launch an application for eg: gedit through Putty in the display of system A. how can I achieve this.
for eg:-
root is logged in to System A, with gdm.
DISPLAY=0.0, ip = aa.aa.aa.aa

User Sivam is logged into putty console.
He has to launch gnome-terminal in root's session using putty..

what are the configurations steps to be taken.
