Assuming that your server is on the network and you can contact it from your desktop, do you have an X-windows server on your desktop? You will need one to open the connection. I think that you will need to connect to the server (telnet is fine) and with the X-windows server running on your desktop, start the connection from the AIX server.

It's not something I do very often at all, so I'm pretty rusty.


A PC tool like cygwin should help with this.



I hope that this helps.

If i tell you something you know already: sorry in advance. You might want to know how X-Windows works. Here are two links which might help you:

I hope this helps.
