If I am not a Linux admin, is there another way to get SSH tunneling and forwarding set up, maybe just for my ID? Thanks for this! very clear.

I was wondering if anybody has succeeded with running "ssh -X" command from the windows command prompt instead of using etc Putty.? I can't get it to work. The session complains on the display not being correct. Hello.

I have it working nicely from my windows machine. Do you have a solution where if I put my startup icon for xming {xlaunch.config} on a citrix server and allow 3 people access to the same Icon that hardcodes Display 0; does xming have a feature where it will increment Display value from 0 to the next available port so the next person executing it on citrix will get the xwindows display to their client. I've been racking my brain on this one. This is great stuff. I have it working nicely from my windows machine.
