remote gui with ssh

[Eugeneapolinary Ju]

ok, I tried: 

ssh -CX ubuntu at 192.168.56.101 /usr/bin/gnome-panel

it gives me a panel, from where I can launch the applications on the remote machine, but it's still just an idea.

There is no such thing as "remote ssh gui"? :O I mean the remote machines full desktop through ssh?

thank you

Hi!

client & "server" = Ubuntu 9.04
Both has GNOME GUI installed.

server [192.168.56.101]: I just install openssh-server on it, and set "DisallowTCP=false" in "/etc/gdm/gdm.config", then "/etc/init.d/gdm restart". Ok.

client: I press "Alt+Ctrl+F2", ok, then I:

$ ssh -X ubuntu at 192.168.56.101 /etc/gdm/Xsession default
ubuntu at 192.168.56.101's password:
/etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup...
xrdb: Can't open display ''
Setting IM through im-switch for locale=hu_HU.
Start IM through /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/all_ALL linked to /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/default.

Why isn't it working? Am I missing something?

Please help..

thanks
