Yes, but you need an X-Windows server for your PC. putty supports
X-Windows display forwarding.


Sorry, but Windows (with an "s" at the end is that piece of software
coming from Redmond). What you mean is the "X Window System". ;-)

But apart from that, you're totally right:
The X Server on the Windows Client will then be used to display X
Client (=GUI applications) running on the Solaris machine while SSH is
used for tunneling the X11 protocol between these two hosts.

Thanks Christian for your answer.

Can you please help me to parameter putty to do it ?

on the server, i enabled :

X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
X11UseLocalhost yes

i enabled X11 forwarding on the client (putty), but when i run command like "redhat-config-service" (it's a GUI tool), i have the error :
+++++++++++++++
The application 'serviceconf.py' lost its connection to the display localhost:11.0;
most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed
the application.
+++++++++++++++

help please ?

Thanks a lot
