How to connect my newly installed ubuntu on my desktop at work to the company's server that is windows based. I have my user name and password given to me by my it office but they could not help me set up linux.
View 8 Repliesis there any apps compatible with remote desktop? So my xubuntu system can connect to my windows system using the existing set up for remote desktop... or do I need to install a new client/server or thing on both systems? I do not mind doing that if you can recommend a good client/server but would prefer to just connect to the existing remote desktop if possible

View 9 Replies View Relatedhow to go about getting Ubuntu to receive an ad-hoc wireless ICS enabled connection. The internet connection is shared through a virtual machine running XP (with the USB wireless dongle under XP's control), on my desktop PC, in order to escape my ISP's no NAT policy. Ubuntu is on both the desktop PC (the sender), and the laptop (the receiver). The desktop and laptop also run windows 7. I managed to get my laptop Ubuntu to connect to my virtual machine XP, by setting the IP, subnet and gateway of all wireless devices, as was suggested in [URL] - I did use the Network Manager GUI, but pinging the desktop doesn't work.
Even with the IP configuration, Windows 7 on the laptop receives the internet fine. The next step is getting Ubuntu to receive. I can do any kind of configuration in a virtual machine, such as install Ubuntu. In virtual machine XP I used 192.168.0.1 with subnet 255.255.255.0 and gateway 1.1.1.1. On the laptop Ubuntu 192.168.0.2 same everything else. I understand nothing about networks. I know there is stuff I can do in the console, but how will Network Manager cope with me doing that?
I have generated a public SSH key in the server and it is located at /root/.ssh. Now i have a windows 7 system and i wanted to connect to that server using that key. How can i do that with windows server 7 as client
I know this is a silly question but i have books and none of them explain how to connect to a server with windows 7
I need to connect with a server apart from the server which I work on. What is the command for this?

I have a private server which I stream media from, but since I've installed VMware running Windows 7 and set up Windows to used a bridged connection, so I can access the network drives in Windows. Now that I have done that, I cannot connect to my home server unless I have VMware running.
I only want windows running when I need it, but I need access to my server at all times.
I am a primary school teacher at a school with hardly any money running 50 pcs on windows server 2003. We recieved 2 donated pcs without windows, so thought of installing a free copy of linux on them and then connect them to the server. Which linux version does this best and how would i do this?

I want to know how to connect from a server which is operating on a windows os from a linux machine using ssh
I am not exactly newbie with GNU/Linux, but definitely new to SSH/NX stuffs. I followed the below tutorials for installing FreeNX so that I can access my desktop like TeamViewer in windows.

But I don't see the folder NX like the one mentioned here.Then edit the file /usr/NX/etc/server.cfg
I don't see a folder called NX to proceed. Also when I use nomachine client to connect from Windows, it couldn't connect and I get the below errors.
nxssh: <host-name>: no address associated with name.
how to make connect to freenx server from windows using nomachine client?
I am at a loss. I can not access my work remote desktop via the terminal server client on my wired box running Ubuntu 10.10. My wireless laptop is able to connect right away once I established the VPN connection. The VPN connection is established on both boxes with no problems.
When I tried the Terminal Server Client on my wired boxed, it says it can not establish a connection. Yet my wireless box gets connected immediately!
I check the /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf and the /etc/resolv.conf to see if there were any differences, but they are essentially the same. When I have the vpnc connection, they both recognize it and I am able to ping the IP address shown when I do a "ifconfig" on the terminal.
What can be the problem? Anything I need to configure on a wired computer versus a wireless one? What else can I check?
I have an ubuntu 11,04 samba domain server, I want to also configure this machine to work as a dhcp server, however this have give me some issues with te windows 7 workstations, my guest is that it have something to do with the iptables because those station do join the samba domain went both server and workstation are conected to a router.
This is the script I use at boot
Code:
#FOR SHARED INTERNET
/sbin/iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables --table nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth2 -j MASQUERADE
[code]....
I haven't test it with windows xp station but I have use the same code in the past with no problems, and since this is my first time joining windows 7 station i belive there must be some other port that need fowarding.
I can connect to the Internet. I can not access gmail or yahoo mail. It doesn't matter what browser I use.
If I switch to a wired connection, I can access gmail. Other wireless networks work fine.
MY router is a Belkin N, but it allows me to access other sites. The settings seem pretty vanilla, not different than wireless routers where I can access gmail.
I really don't know what I'm doing. I know how to use the command line (though, I'm not often sure EXACTLY what I'm doing with it), I know basically what sudo is. Beyond that I'm pretty lost if you were to ask me to explain any of linux/ubuntu/unix/etc...However. I'm good at following instructions.I have an ancient Toshiba Satellite 1415 laptop.
1.8GHz Celeron
256MB RAM
nVidia GeForce4 420Go (with nVidia X drivers actually working, woooo!)
Intel integrated 10/100 Ethernet
DVD-ROM/CD+/-RW drive [non-functioning]
integrated 802.11b card [non-functioning]
I've installed Lucid via PXE (see above RE: non-functioning optical disc drive). It was a hassle to do so, but since I've not been able to get this laptop to boot from a usb drive, it seemed the way to go. However, the PXE setup process is not exactly straightforward; therefore I THINK I installed it correctly because most everything else works fine, but I really have no way of knowing.
More preliminaries: As the built-in wireless card in the Laptop has been dead for longer than I care to remember, I'm attempting to use a PCMCIA D-Link DWL-650+ (not a 650 or a 650G or a 650G+) which says that it's supposed to work "out of the box" with the ACX100 driver.
lspci returns the line:
Code:
05:00.0 Network controller: Texas Instruments ACX 100 22Mbps Wireless Interface ifconfig returns info on "eth0" and "lo", the ethernet, and loopback interfaces respectively.It makes no mention of a wlan0 interface.iwconfig reports (correctly) that eth0 and lo have no wireless extentions.[code]..;;
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS. Kernel/architecture is 2.6.32-25-generic i686.This laptop ancient and cheap,so it's definitely 32bit.I've tried following various tutorials for getting an ACX100 based-card to work, but keep running into errors that the tutorial doesn't cover.The main problem seems to be that almost all the info out there is out-dated by about 2 years.The ACX100 project's Wiki at TheSourceForge states, "Ubuntu 9.10 deprecated linux-restricted-modules in favor of DKMS.
I am trying to connect an Ubuntu 10.04 desktop system wirelessly to another desktop that is directly connected to a cable modem via dlink wireless router and ethernet card. I have not been able to connect on the second system (Ubuntu) to the wireless router.

I want to setup my linux PC so that I can use windows PC remote desktop to connect to my linux PC. I found a solution from the web that I use xrdp and sesman to connect to the linux PC. Also, the file startwm.sh has to be changed:
x11vnc -display :0 -localhost &
sleep 5
vncviewer localhost:0 -fullscreen
However, I found that it actually shared the desktop between the linux PC and my windows PC. Hence the speed is a bit slow. Are there any other approaches that work similar to windows remote desktop that can kick the current user who logged in (log him out) and only you access the desktop? I believe if it is possible to do that, the speed will be much improved. I am totally new to remote desktop setup and do not know each software how it works. I just followed the procedure step-by-step to set the xrdp and sesman up. Please give me some advice on the above situation.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently started to set up a SSH server, I was able to set up a Hamachi based VPN and was able to connect to it on all levels, for about 5 min, after that the server goes into idle mode and is no longer able to connect to that computer via LAN or Hamachi. Not till after I shake the mouse can I connect back in via LAN, and I have to log out and back in of Hamachi to get that to work. Is there a way to stop the Internet shutdown on that computer when it goes into idle mode? SSH servers are more or less useless if it doesn't let me tunnel in when I need to. This is for Ubuntu Server.

I set up the remote desktop on ubuntu and I connect to my current ubuntu's desktop with the VNC viewer. It is working, I see the mouse cursor, but I cannot see the files while I'm dragging them.
Another friend of mine has THE SAME problem.
I have installed and configurated NX server, and the problem is the same.
If I connect with the nx client, using a different session, I can control my desktop, I can drag windows and files, but if I'm using the shadow option from the nx client program, then I cannot drag windows and files.
