Just to let you all know that I am reading all this and coming to some choices, need to actually do things tomorrow night.

All the replies have been helpful and it appears that I will be setting things up temp for this OE and then looking at something as suggested by et.

Am still reading and have found a helpful site to learn some basics. www.portfordward.com

Mind. I'm off to read about Tight-VNC so may well find this out along the way.

UPDATE: Have found the TightVNC site and am getting mind blow ( and loving it ).

It seems that I may need to consider openssh and I must have played with things at one time because it appears that the server and client stuff is already installed.

And yeah ~ some of that printf doesn't apply, just put it all there in case someone sees something missing.

Have downloaded the rpms for tightvnc, so they're ready to install.

Mind, this is where I must plan a little, is tightvnc included with any LiveCD,s ( hopefully MandrivaMove ) ?

Or should I abandon this train of thought for now ? [ 2000hrs Kiwi time ~ coffee required ]

Please keep the suggestions coming, they are greatly appreciated.
