Expand the "Connection" settings, then go to "Port Forwarding" -> "Remote/X11".

Download setup.exe and make sure you select the following packages (from the 'Select Package' screen - should be available after the initial file downloads):

MobaXterm - SSH client with X11 included.Xming - available for all versions of Windows.There are several X11 servers available, here are three that are free.
#GTA 1 TO PLAY INSTALL#
XQuartz - X11 used to be available as an optional package on the install disc, but is now maintained in the XQuartz project.If you are logged in to a graphical environment (like X), an X11 server is most likely already running.There are both free and commercial X11 servers available for the various operating systems. In order to use X11, you need to have an X11 server running on your local machine. Ssh -Y is not recommended otherwise, as a program then potentially has access to do things like keylogging.

The X11 connections are then tunneled and automatically encrypted by your SSH client.įor some types of graphical software this does not work correctly (if they need input from keystrokes). To achieve this, an X11 server must be running on your local machine. This is also very useful if you want to open graphical displays from the remote machine on your local computer. Ssh -X supports tunneling of X11 (X-Windows). If you have a long running or cpu-intensive job, use a compute server.In order to enable this, you must login with IMPORTANT: Do NOT run long jobs or cpu-heavy jobs on scully. When you are ready to connect, click on the Open button.These settings are now saved, and can be reused the next time you use PuTTY by choosing the name you saved it under and clicking Load after opening PuTTY. Under Saved Sessions type in a name and then click Save. To save these settings, go back to the original screen by clicking on the Session item on the left.Then click the Enable X11 forwarding checkbox. Choose X11, which is located under Connection and then SSH on the left hand side.Open PuTTY and enter the name of a DECS compute server for the host name.Launch one of these programs before you make your ssh connection. In order for a GUI to be displayed on your client machine you'll need an X11 Server VcXsrv (installed with a normal DECS software installation) or XMing running. In order to do this, you need a SSH client that supports X forwarding, such as PuTTY, click here to learn more about SSH and PuTTY. X forwarding allows a user to run UNIX and Linux graphical applications remotely. If you have an issue with X2Go, see below for more options.

In some cases it may be helpful to know how to make the connection via terminal or putty and X11 server software.

DECS primarily recommends using X2Go for connections to our compute servers.
