FreeBSD-6.2=0A=0AI have a FBSD computer that I need to access via ssh from = a WinXP machine running 'putty'. I am using ssh certificates for authorizat= ion. No problem there. I can do anything I want when I access the FBSD mach= ine in this manner, except run something like KDE or XFCE4. I thought I mad= e all of the required changes to the ssh_config and sshd_config as well as = 'putty', but evidently not.=0A=0ASituation:=0A=0AI have 'startx' set to sta= rt 'xfce4' presently. If I type: 'startx' while logged in via ssh, xfce4 wi= ll start on the FBSD machine just fine. However, on the WinXP PC with 'putt= y', all I see are the start up messages on the screen. The actual GUI, etc.= never appears. This makes using the program impossible from a remote locat= ion.=0A=0AI am sure I am doing something really stupid here. Perhaps someon= e could point me i the right direction.=0A=0AThanks!=0A =0A-- =0A=0AWhite H= at =0Apigskin_referee@yahoo.com=0A=0A=0A =0A_______________________________= _____________________________________________________=0AExpecting?
