@bill george it’s 2014! so where’s the tutorial ? :D
nxterm from nomachine.com is a great tool and works great. One of these days i’ll write a tutorial.
SSH isn’t going to get him access to the desktop unless he also sets up x forwarding. <br> <br>There’s a tutorial to set up VNC (a remote desktop protocol) here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-setup-vnc-for-ubuntu-12
Download PuTTy for windows and use that to connect to SSH <br>http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ <br>(Other windows SSH Clients are available) <br> <br>For File transfer (over SSH/SFTP) I recomment WinSCP <br>http://winscp.net/eng/index.php
