Hi All,
I just got sshd/ssh setup on my work and home workstations. I'm able to connect to work from my home, and everything including X11Forwarding is working well. However there's is one more thing I need to do:
Is there a way to start an app (VMWare Workstation in this case) on the remote machine and then disconnect (and shutdown) the local machine while the app continues to run remotely? And then reconnect to the remote session later? (Like an RDP session under Windows).
VNC over ssh comes to mind, but is there another way?
Cheers,
Scott
