I can't answer the specified question, but why do you assume that ssh restricts you to cli? You can use port forwarding (quite easily from putty) to display X apps to the users' machine. Only catch is that they have to have an X server installed, but you can get this for free (in both senses) from cygwin. That being said, depending on your remote users' connections, X might be quite laggy. -- monique Unless you need to share ultra-sensitive super-spy stuff with me, please don't email me directly.
