No. Remote desktop meaning you want a graphical environment? Use krdc or something. PuTTy is SSH, which is text-based.
How do I install it and what do I have to do?
I don't have first hand experience with it. But, from a terminal:
sudo apt-get install krdc
Will grab and install it for you. It should be self-explanatory.
If I install it how do I run it and in a windows environment how can I access it?
for remote desktop you are better off using VNC
ssh access is for CLI only, which is quite enough for a linux server
Jbennet reccommended me that, can u tell me how to install vnc?
can you use it on login screen or do you have to be logged in?
I have no idea, again, I have no personal experience with it. Try Googling krdc
.
bondi, come on man, just read the google results
Yeah, I meant VNC, not krdc. I forgot we had begun talking about VNC. Haha. Yeah, Google is your best friend here.
Yep had a look and install vnc but for some reason I cannot connect :/ from a other machine.
do you have a firewall service running?
Do you have VNC installed on both machines, as well?
tight vn viewr on client and vnc server on host :) but no look!
Why not use SSH / X tunneling (export your display)
thats the nearest linux equivilent to RDP
I dont have a clue what that is could you tell me and tell me how to install it and I cannot google it if I dont know what the ... it is.. lol
google for X tunelling
To use VNC is better for remote desktop
which is enough for linux server.
