Why is the normal SSH X11 forwarding mechnism not adequate? If I understand
your post correctly, you have security auditing software for NT, which you are
running in SoftPC at the remote Solaris box. If SoftPC ends up being just
another X11 application, then the normal SSH X11 forwarding ought to be all
you need. You just ssh from the inside box to the outside box, and startup
your SoftPC session normally. SSH forwards the X11 to your inside box, and
the app appears there.
