As other people suggested: SSH. PuTTY
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
can do it. Can run, say xclock (I'm running an X server under W32 at work,
tunneling through a NAT box), but from Linux, not from Solaris.  Probably
OpenSSH misconfigurat5ion.

Adjournment of Michel Fournier's big Jump in May, 2003.
Two attempts of launch failed : the first because of the wind which got up
prematurely and the second due to a technical hitch during the inflating of
the envelope.
The team of the Big Jump, folds luggage, having waited up to the end for an
opportunity for the launch of the balloon stratosphérique allowing to raise
the
capsule pressurized by Michel Fournier at more than 40 000 metres in height.
As expected, in the date of September 20, the jets stream strengthened in
300 kph announcing the imminent arrival of the winter and closing until next
May the meteorological window favorable to a human raid in the stratosphere.
On the plains of Saskatchewan, the first snows are waited in the days which
come.Meeting in all in May, 2003.
