where one remotely controls the other. upupbb32-8.0 both.

use a SSH client like pUTTY or the one built into most Puppy's. Also install and or enable the SSH server (i.e. Dropbear) on the machine you want to remotely control.

Connect the 2 machines using the SSH client and with X11 forwarding graphical programs can be run or just running things from the command line.

Is this the direction you're asking about?

thx v much.

Methinks AnyDesk Portable or similar would not only be easier, but a better fit.

It is interesting option,would you kindly make a youtube tutorial, I donot even know what ssh refers to

see

I install x11vnc-0.9.14.pet and then install x11vnc-0.9.14-i486-1gv.txz (the version there is in the repository is 0.9.13) then in windows I use TightVNC viewer.

memo

I strongly suggest to learn always Linux way of doing things. In this case Linux way of controlling other Linux is ssh. It is so good that in windows they invented Putty to mimic ssh.

Now I do not understand why there is no simple pet package. And all will tell you to do 1001 other best ways to do what it is native to linux. But trust me once you learn shh you can use it anywhere, from Windows to Android and specially connecting to other Linux.

Here small info rockedge posted in how to set up the server ( The PC that you want to control )
Setup a Dropbear SSH Server on Bionic64-v8 and Bionic64-CE

As for Videos just go to youtuve here so you have an Idea

See Tutorial 14 & 15 this will explained how ssh work, Then You search for x-11 forward. X11 Forward is the GUI way of ssh.

here is pUTTY as a PET file for Linux. Compiled in Bionic64

I posted a simple set of instructions to set up a Dropbear SSH server.

I compiled both pUTTY and Dropbear on Bionic64-v8.
I have tested building the same for Xenial and Tahr and it works as well.

Here is the post with the HOW TO
