Hi,

I thought I was quite experienced at administering a Ubuntu Server, but
I am totally confused by the graphical desktop for Ubuntu Server 11.10.

I need to be able to remotely connect to the server with Putty (my
choice for remote access to servers). But how do I enable this remote
access -- when I try I get a message saying network connection refused.

Do I need to disable/configure a firewall? How would I do that?

Hoping someone can assist.

Best wishes,

Alex



Graphical desktop on a server?  Did I miss something?

Anyway, you should be able to just install the openssh-server package (or when installing there should be an option to install SSH server amongst the server types).
