Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Remote access computer system as a whole not just desktop with GUI Post 303029025 by jim mcnamara on Saturday 19th of January 2019 10:11:21 PM

From your desktop you cannot use putty and the ssh protocol from your PC to get a root (or any user) screen in bash or ksh on the remote? I do it 50 times per week PC->Solaris, PC->ubuntu, etc.

Download PuTTY - a free SSH and telnet client for Windows

Once logged in to UNIX you should be able to ssh to another unix: unix->unix.

If this does not work please elaborate and show error messages so we can help

PROFILE-MANAGER(1)					      General Commands Manual						PROFILE-MANAGER(1)

NAME
profile-manager - starts the gui for configuring the metadata used by desktop-profiles SYNOPSIS
profile-manager DESCRIPTION
The desktop profiles package needs metadata about the available profiles in order to decide when to activate which profiles. This metadata is contained in the .listing files placed in the /etc/desktop-profiles directory. This convenience script will start a graphical interface for configuring that metadata. The gui is a kommander script, so you need to have the kommander package installed for the gui to work (the script will check if the neces- sary prerequisites are present, and tell you what's missing if necessary). OPTIONS
There are no options FILES
/etc/desktop-profiles/*.listing - Files containing the metadata about installed profiles BUGS
The gui currently barks at profile metadata containing a single quote in the description. AUTHOR
