Accessing NetBeans Remotely from Solaris

by Ada Li

I've got one tip for calling an application on a remote Solaris server.

For example, there are two Solaris machines, one is my desktop, the" other's name is "check", and I created my user id "Ada" on the "check machine. Now I want to call NetBeans 5.5 located on check machine from my desktop.
I typed following command on my desktop:

# ssh -X ada@check
(Prompt for password)
$bash
bash-3.00 /opt/netbeans-5.5/bin/netbeans

Then the NetBeans startup flash window appears on my desktop. The only limitation is that I have to know the location of the application.
