A story here about me and Linux:
Over the past few days, I've been using my sisters computer for my browsing and other purposes. Now, the reasion I was using her computer was not necesarily because I couldn't use any of the other computers but, because her computer is far more comfortable due to having all my locations all ready in my opera. So, my sister still likes to use her computer so she complained that I need to find another computer to use.
So, what did I do? I(with the help of my brother) got another computer set up with X11 forewarding and simply ssh'd in and typed in "opera" and wa la! I'm using the same opera I'm used to :).
Now, tell me you can do that with wondows! I don't know if you can but, I really doubt it's that easy :). How do you enable X11 forewarding? well, in ubuntu it's rather simple. you simply su to root. cd over to /etc/ssh/ and type "nano ssh_config". Then, once you're inside there's a part just down there called "host *" and all you do is change the "#Foreward X11 no" to "Foreward X11 yes"(remove # sign) and do the same for X11 tRusted :). Then it should work great! Oh yeah, in Nano you'll have to do ctrl+O and ctrl+X to exit :).
And That Should do it!
Have Fun :)
