Can we have codestriker ( http://codestriker.sourceforge.net/ ) in
next Fedora Release.  This is package help in code-reviews and is very
 useful for software developers.  It integrates nicely with Apache,
Bugzilla, MTA, Version Control tools like CVS etc. It would be nice to
have it in the Fedora Repository so that the server maintainers need
not worry about the version mismatches while setting up or upgrading
the server.

Thanks,
Hemant

[PLUG] [OT] Exceed, Exceed OnDemand, VNC

2009-07-29 Thread YogeshHasabnis
Hi,



I need to use XWindow based applications on my Linux servers from my 
Windows/Linux desktop. I know VNC works for this. I learnt about Exceed. So I 
am trying to understand it's features by doing a google-search. I find that 
there two different products - Exceed and Exceed OnDemand. I would like to get 
some pointers about how these products - Exceed, Exceed OnDemand, VNC, differ 
from each other. Any advantage in using commercial products like Exceed/Exceed 
OnDemand ?



Thanks in advance,

Yogesh

Do you have a need for commercial product ?
If not, you should consider XMing :

http://sourceforge.net/projects/xming/

I've used it in past and was very happy

You may also like to look at X server from Cygwin, for running GUI
apps on Linux servers.
Simply start the X server on Windows, enable permissions (xhost ),
connect to the Linux server (ssh/telnet), export display and run the
app.

Cheers,
Hemant
