This is beneficial because I only need register an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) with aMinimalorBasic Server

However, there are situations where I need to access a graphical desktop in order to install or run certain Graphical User Interface (GUI) applications.This guide provides the steps needed to add the GNOME

Although there are several options to enable a remote desktop on an EC2 instance, I prefer to useNX Free Edition (FreeNX).FreeNX is a program which allows users to run remote X11 sessions from clie

The only method I know of to also includeoptionalpackages is to edit the/etc/yum.conffile and add the following to themainsection:group_package_types=default mandatory optionalThe reason I mention this is because I wanted to install Terminal emulator for the

The client is neede

Furthermore, the SSH server daemon (SSHD) needs to be up and running on each of the NX Node machines since NX relies on the mechanism provided by the SSH subsystem for handling user authent
