, 21:06, 25 January 2011→Using Xwindow Applications on Bear
*Stata-SE (xstata-se)
*SAS (sas)
To use these applications you need an Xwindows client. The eXceed client is [http://software.berkeley.edu available from software.berkeley.edu] for [http://software-central.berkeley.edu/software/42-Exceed/version/143/delivery_methods/297 download here]. Download it and install it.
Now save a bear configuration in PuTTy by entering the following parameters and hitting "Save":
Connection -> Data -> SSH -> X11 -> Enable X11 Fowarding '''Tick the box'''
Session -> Saved Sessions '''Bear''' + '''Click Save'''
Now start eXceed running (and leave it running in the background) and SSH onto bear using Putty. At the command line type the name of the program, for example "xstata-se", and the program will launch in an eXceed window on your desktop. Voila!
For example my screen looks like:
[ed_egan@bear-b ~]$ xstata-se
Remember - Bear is your R drive, so the root of bear, when you login, is the root of your R drive!
