Guys:
I have a mac computer ( which is my host machine). I am running a vm Fusion with a Linux operating system on the host machine.
I was able to allow the host machine communicate effectively via ssh on the terminal on the host machine with MV linux box.
Now, I have a laptop running on windows. I downloaded putty on it. How do I establish a communication through putty on my windows box to access my VM linux box in my Mac ( the machine hosting my VM)?
Please help?
Thanks!Most of the guys want to access Linux box from Windows machine just to do some programming on the command line. The "Putty Tool" is the solution for this. Just google for "Putty" and download this small package(less then 1MB) and keep it on your desktop.
Just you need to configure the linux machine IP on this Putty tool and connect to Linux machine.
If you face any problem in configuring Linux IP, then let me know, i will help you out.

what I did was I login in as a root user from my virutal machine linux box. On the terminal I issued the ifconfig command. I note down the ip address of my virtual machine linux box. I also enable communication for port 22 on the virtual machine linux box.
On my windows xp box, I downloaded putty. The box field that requires a host or ip address I input the ip address I noted on my virtual machine linux box and the rest is history.
I am guessing it works fine because all of the machines are on the same networks.
Let say, the windows xp box is on a totally different network --- for instance the windows xp box is located at your office on a different network from the virtual machine linux box at my home. how do I establish a communication?
Please Help!!
