Ubuntu Networking :: Running Remote X Application?
Jan 14, 2010
I have two computers running Ubuntu. I want to run the copy of Firefox that is on the remote machine. i connect to the remote in the usual way, "ssh -X fermi", which brings up a console on the remote machine, fermi. When I type "firefox", however, it starts the copy of firefox that is on the local machine. On the remote machine, "ps aux|grep firefox" confirms that firefox is not running there. Is there a way to force execution of the remote copy?Or, can I start a local copy of firefox using the remote bookmarks, preferences, etc?

I have installed a bioinformatics tool called Pathway Tools on ubuntu 10.10, and I'm trying to access it through ssh client from windows vista client system. my client is puTTY. I can run the terminal shell, and I log in and everything goes alright. However, when I run the program by typing the following:pathway-tools from the directory of the tool. just like I'm running it from ubuntu directly. I get the following message:
Code:
aibig@aibig-HP-xw4400-Workstation:~/pathway-tools$ ./pathway-tools
Warning: Constant **&-TAG-MAPPING-LIST** being redefined from
(("alpha" SYMBOL T "a") ("beta" SYMBOL T "b")
("gamma" SYMBOL T "g") ("delta" SYMBOL T "d")
("epsilon" SYMBOL T "e") ("zeta" SYMBOL T "z")
[Code]...
Enter name of X-window server to connect to (of the form HOST:N.M): You can ignore all the warnings, all my problem is at the last line. I searched the internet to know what does they mean by HOST:N.M value the shell requests, but in vain. I'm really a newbie to ubuntu, but I'm getting familiar day by day and I'm loving it.

I suspect this has been posted before, but I'm new enough to the OS to lack the proper vocab for a proper search.
In any case, I'm basically trying to run programs remotely at work (from home) that will run for a long time. I first ssh into the appropriate network, then ssh into the individual machine. This works great and I can run programs no problem. The issue is that these programs can run for days or weeks, and the network kicks me out after some period of time due to inactivity.
Is there a way to start a program on a remote machine then terminate the connection but have it keep running?

In the past, I've installed Internet services as daemons and as xinetd.d with no problems. Those approaches do not meet my needs. And, perhaps, nothing will.
- the service was converted from VB-6 to wxPython. It has a GUI which is accessed with either "remote desktop" or VNC.
- the wxPython service works on Windows and can be accessed from other hosts on my LAN
- the wxPython service works on CentOS and Fedora, but can only be accessed from within the server host. Even from other user-ids. But, I cannot get to it from other hosts.
- ipchains AKA firewall ports are marked for INPUT.
- The server host uses autologin to fire up a useid in group "user". I do not want it running as "root". the .bash_profile fires the service up.
- the service is heavily mult-threaded, and supports devices connected to serial ports asynchronously with the ephemeral port threads (all this works).
There are some programming solutions that I would rather not develop.
- a proxy service that runs under xinetd.d.
- separate the GUI code from the Internet and serial port code. Allocate a "control" port for remote GUI control. a'la SAMBA & SWAT
Is there any hope, that I can run it as is, by doing some network configuration stuff.

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 a small netbook that I would like to use as a terminal for my main computer, so instead of opening Gnome-terminal on my computer it will run from my netbook.
what i want to know is how to ssh from my netbook into my main computer and run an application on that computer.
So i would like to be able to ssh into my computer, and when i type "vlc movie.avi" it will open and run on the REMOTE computer just as if i had opened gnome-terminal and typed the command there.
Note: I'm not looking for something/anything like "ssh -X" or VNC or Remote Desktop.

I forgot to run a GUI process on a remote computer. I need to run the application as if I was at the computer i.e the application needs to open on the desktop on the remote computer.
I can connect to the computer through an ssh tunnel via another computer at the remote site and run non GUI based processes using Screen or bring some GUI programs to the computer I'm working from using the ssh -X option, however, this is not what I'm looking to do.
On Windows I used to use a program from sysinterns called PsExec which would let me start applications such as Word on the remote computer and I'm hoping that there is something similar on Linux.

I've been trying to make a cgi script that starts a program on a server and then shows the program on the servers screen. The cgi script is written in perl. I've been successful in making the program showing up on the screen through ssh by setting $DISPLAY to :0.0, I tried setting it to this in /etc/profile but when the cgi script ran nothing showed up on the screen. I tried having the script running it as a local user with "su - [user] -c [command]", this didn't help either.
In short what I'm trying to accomplish. When I press a button on a web page an slide show is supposed to start on a screen connected to the server.

I need to be able to open an openGL based piece of software remotely (like Maya or 3D Studio Max, for example). The server will be a linux machine (CentOS, currently, fwiw), but the client should be able to run on at least Linux and Windows. This will happen over the internet as opposed to over a LAN.
So far, I've tried
- "NoMachine NX" which is pretty good, but it seems to have some issues with GL. Maybe this can be fixed in xorg on the server (disabling overlays or something like that)? not sure.
- HP Remote Graphics Software (RGS) which works fairly well with Cent & Windows, though is sometimes a little slow. It also doesn't seem to be happy on Ubuntu, which is a pretty big bummer. It's also a bummer that it's somewhat expensive. That said, it's still the front-runner.
- VNC which was very slow.
It's imperative that it can transmit very complex rendered OpenGL properly. It's ok if it's slow to tumble/refresh, but it should be correct.

As the thread states, I wonder why my RAM usage is about 56% without any application running. It turns to 58% while opening Firefox (with only one Tab/Page opened) and typing this post. Is there something wrong?

I have a web server that hosts multiple websites. Am looking for an application that can be run on my workstation and makes it possible to watch Apache logs live.
It should have a tabbed interface. When I launch the application, it has to connect to my server and should automatically open all access.log and error.log files and display all changes in real time (similar to tail -f command).
Does anything like this exist?
I'm tired of logging in many times in Konsole and executing tail -f commands to see parallel logs.

Running the Lynx and I have set up Evolution to download my Gmail e-mails but now I have a question.
When Evolution is running I get the notifications when e-mail come in and the little envelope at the top becomes "lit" to indicate I have new mail. What I want to know is how can I get notified without having the application "open", still having the notifications etc. but without having the application window open (like when you "close" Rhythmbox but it is still running at the top even though the windows is closed)?

It detected from the hardrive which version I had etc but than a error message appeared on the bottom saying:
Warning: Remote control daemon not running.
How can I activate this? I included a screenshot!

I'm trying to access a VMware server via Lab Manager using Firefox 3.6.12 from Ubuntu 10.10. Lab Manager comes up but when I double click on a VM console to open it up I get: VMware Remote MKS Plugin not running. So, I install the plugin and restart Firefox, as directed. The plugin shows that VMware Remote MKS Plugin 2.2.0.0 is installed. I go back to Lab Manager and double click on it, but get the same message. Lab Manager does not find the plug in.

After a series of unrelated problems with my mouse (that had nothing to do with suse) I opened a process but I don't know what is it. It looks like a series of micro-post-its in the bottom of my desktop:Also, I checked the option to start a new session every time I start KDE, but this keeps appearing.
