Hi,
Sorry if this question has been asked before, however, I have tried looking in the forum (and google in general) and I haven't found an answer, so I thought I'd ask here.
I am trying to use a GUI application in Solaris 10. Normally I connect with a VPN then SSH and use Xming to launch my application.
The problem is that whenever my VPN disconnects, the software closes and interrupts the things it was doing.
For command line applications I use "screen" to keep a session opened when the VPN connection fails, so there is no problem, but I haven't found anything equivalent for an X session.
I even tried forwarding the X session to "screen" (export DISPLAY=localhost:N.0 ) but either I'm doing something wrong or this doesn't work...
I know using Citrix will solve this with proper configuration, unfortunately for the time being I can't use it on this server.
is there any software equivalent to "screen" for X sessions that I can use in Solaris 10? if not, Is there any alternative way of doing this?
Thanks!
