I have multiple users running on a Windows Terminal Server (Citrix) that
want to use PuTTY to access SSH hosts and do X11 forwarding through eXceed.
One of the annoying problems with doing this, is that we cannot figure out
how to automatically setup PuTTY to determine what the X display should be.
Since there are multiple users, the X display that eXceed sets up is
hostname:#.0, where # changes based on how many users are running eXceed on
the WTS server.
Does anyone know how (or if) I can better integrate PuTTY and eXceed ?
Failing that, users have the ability to set their display from a DOS window
(using set display command), and look at the launched eXceed icon to
determine what their X Display number is (i.e. the eXceed icon hows :4.0).
Once they set their display, they can "SSH -X" using OpenSSH to connect to
the remote SSH host. Does anyone know how I can write a script to determine
the X display assigned by eXceed. I would like to setup shortcuts for my
users that automatically launches remote X applications over SSH.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks, Jack...
