"MobaXterm is an enhanced terminal for Windows with an X11 server, a tabbed SSH client and several other network tools for remote computing (VNC, RDP, telnet, rlogin). MobaXterm brings all the essential Unix commands to Windows desktop, in a single portable exe file which works out of the box."[1]
Installation
To install MobaXterm for Windows, simply go to the download link above. Because of the frequency with which you are likely to use MobaXterm, you will likely want to create a quick-launch icon for it as well as a desktop icon. You will also need to make sure that MobaXterm is allowed to work through your firewall -- most likely, your computer will ask you the first time you run the program.
Use
MobaXterm contains both the terminal window and the x-server; no second program is required to have graphics sent over to your PC from a remote host. As a result, all you need to do is:
- Start MobaXterm
- Type:
ssh -XY NETID@machine.oit.duke.edu
where NETID is your NET ID and machine is the teer (or other machine) you want to connect to.
Troubleshooting
None as yet.
