Configuring SSH connections on RedHat ES 4

[Harjinder Singh]

Thanks for the help with SSH...i got it working with Putty.

What's the best way to establish a remote X-Windows session?

Thanks for any help provided.

By default OpenSSH-server is installed and also it's started when the system 
boot up, look at "netstat -putan | grep -i listen" output
Ssh is listen on port 22, by default, you can change that by editing 
/etc/ssh/sshd_config at the bottom you will see the line:

Port 22

You can put instead of 22, whatever you want (look at /etc/services)

And about the client, OpenSSH-client is installed by default in most of Linux 
distributions, you can check it out by doing "rpm -qa | grep -i 
openssh-clients"

If you want to connect to a sshserver from a Windows machine, you can use 
putty, which is free.

Cheers.
