Post by: Paladin9 on 13 October 2004, 06:20
What could i use on my windows pc to run a remote terminal to my linux server that is on my network?  I want something that is like working in the shell right on the server, but on my windows pc instead(or my mac).  Any suggestions?  Any good programs out there to use?  (Dont bother metioning telnet)

you could also do X11 fowarding in linux if your windows box have cygwin X server installed so you will have a graphical view of the linux system.

Mac OS X comes with a telnet and ssh clients (just go the terminal and type "ssh user@server" or whatever) and you can use SSH on classic with this (http://pro.wanadoo.fr/chombier/MacSSH/SSH_info.html) free utility.

He doesn't, but if he did want graphical he could alaways try VNC too.
