Re: [Nolug] Exporting a session with IRIX

Yes, I've done that... but putty doesn't forward ports (and I've had limited

app on the client's machine, etc, which I don't wanna do.

I want to be able to use any computer anywhere (at the library, etc.) that
has a browser and be able to access my desktop. I'm planning on going out of
the country this summer, and getting to my stuff is a necessity, seeing as I
admin several sites, etc.
