Hello Guys!!! This is my first posting on this forum and i'm looking forward to get the complete help i need because this forum i believe is the number one forum of solving linux problems!!! Any way, I need help on how to remote access ubuntu breezy from windowes xp????!!! How can i see the ubuntu environment from xp and able to use it!!! If any one knows, please provide me with a complete tutorial and i will really appreciated !!! Thanks guys!!!
Thanks man for your help!!! I have another question... Do i have to install putty on both ubuntu and xp in order to have it working????
No, you just install it on Windows. There's already an SSH server on your Ubuntu system, and PuTTY will connect to it.
Hey Guys!!! I think i have a littel problem with the configuration of Putty!!!! I just put my ip address and it gave me an error saying the following: Unable to open connection to http Host does not exist. I think i have done something wrong because i don't know how to configure Putty!!! By the way the computer that is runing ubuntu in which session should it be running, default one or Gnome one,,, Thanks guys
OHHH !!!! I got that working!!!! But through sudo terminal.... I don't want to access it like that, i want to access the GNU of ubuntu on my windows!!!! Help!!!
Your IP does not start with http. I guess you entered something like http://192.168.0.1 instead of 192.168.0.1 Thats equal. SSH is a server process.
yeah i fixed that!!!! But now i want to be able to see ubuntu's environmnt on windows, how can i do that!!!!
Then install TightVNC on your ubuntu workstation and the tightvnc client on your windows workstation.
Thanks a lot guys for all your help!!!! Thanks man tightvnc is working now and everything is in good shape.... Thanks to all of you again!!!

If you want to access the shell, you will have to install an SSH server on ubuntu and use putty on windows to connect. If you want to access the XWindow enviroment, try the solution i posted above: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showpost.php?p=17898&postcount=11
