Guys,
Sorry if this is a repeat question. But I wld really appreciate any pointers.
I have 1 linux (RH 9.0/GNOME) box at home & another linux (RH 9.0/GNOME) box at work.
I want to get remote gnome desktop of my home box at my office. (something similar to windows remote desktop (win-win) or say rdesktop (linux-win))
I know i could just ssh and I have also looked at VNC. But anything more native/inbuild?? Hope my problem is clear.
not really tested i hope that someone can correct the following
you can edit the gnome-config-files by hand or
start-here:///
system-settings
logon-screen
activate xdmcp
if you start in runlevel 5
#killall gdm-binary #gdm
if you start in runlevel 3 you have to start gdm manually #gdm
you must be reachabele from outside http://www.dns2go.com http://www.dyndns.org http://www.dyndns.com http://www.eisfair.net/dyndns/ ...
you must enable portforwarding:
# lsof -Pi | grep "gdm\|X" X 1387 root 1u IPv4 2438 TCP *:6000 (LISTEN) gdm-binar 2165 root 3u IPv4 35470 UDP *:177 X 2170 root 1u IPv4 35489 TCP *:6001 (LISTEN)
# nmap -sU -p177 localhost Port State Service 177/udp open xdmcp
# nmap -p6000-6010 localhost Port State Service 6000/tcp open X11 6001/tcp open X11:1
