I come from a Windows background and have been using Remote Desktop to view a remote server's desktop on my local machine. Remote desktop is probably the most popular tool for doing this because it's already part of the OS. Is there a similar tool for Windows but for accessing a Linux machine instead?
Try VNC. It works on Mac and Linux. You need to be running the server portion on the Linux host.
Take a look at xrdp. According to project description you can even use your native Windows client to access Linux desktop:
The goal of this project is to provide a fully functional Linux
terminal server, capable of accepting connections from rdesktop,
freerdp, and Microsoft's own terminal server / remote desktop clients.
try TeamViewer you can download it from

I have a windows computer and connect to Linux on a remote server for my experiments. I want to use an easy interface software from windows to my Linux server (ubuntu 18.04). Can you give some tips on how to increase productivity in such a workflow?
Putty is fast, but AFAIK, does not support tabs, you will have to open different windows for different tasks, unless you use a terminal multiplexer like screen.
Try Mobaxterm and see if you like it. It is free, and supports multiple tabs, very handy for a single session.

Newbie to stack overflow and am experimenting with running an X Server so my colleagues and I can access our Linux GUI applications from windows machines.
I know all about XMing and other utils but my question isn't on the MS Windows side, it's on the Linux host machine. You see right now the linux boxes all have GUI's installed (CentOS and Ubuntu) with the configs to access via Xming or any other SSH X forwarding client.
My question is can I just setup the server to run the x system in the background without having to install a GUI? Did some research and can't really figure it out as I'm not an X Windows guru.
Thanks for everyone's help.

There is no need to have a full X server running or installed on the same system that is running X clients; only the libraries required for implementation of the protocol are required, and the system's package manager will handle installing those.

here is a window host ip is 192.168.8.1
i can telnet in this host from linux host 192.168.2.1 and name/pwd is test test
i want a shell script to login in window host(192.168.8.1),and copy d:/log to f:/log.
from linux host ,how to write this linux script .
I hava already tried to think,thank you for you to answer it.
You can install an ssh server on windows (for example OpenSSH)
Here a link of a tutorial: http://www.worldgoneweb.com/2011/installing-openssh-on-windows-7/
Then you can use the scp command from linux machine to copy your files. http://linux.die.net/man/1/scp
I would first ask if you have any other access to the windows host? Does it have a ftp server?
Is it or can it share drives? Assuming you need to transfer the file via the telnet session stream you can check out Kermit. It was originally written to work on serial lines, but can also work with telnet sessions. A version of kermit needs to be installed on both windows and linux. It works with binary files. It also changes line endings if needed. Another possibility is zmodem.
Old versions of kermit are public domain. Should be Ok. Newer versions are not. See http://www.omen.com/zmdmev.html

I have an app that's running on a Linux server, and it produces log files on that server. I personally use a Windows machine and wonder if there's any way to tail the log file on the remote Linux server, and stream it to a file on my Windows machine hard disk?
I know there are some 3rd party web sites/software but I'm curious if there are any native ways of doing this
Thanks so much!
What about sharing the file using samba and just tailing it via the share
Logstash not only transfers your file, but also can parse your logfields and display it on a nice UI Kibana 3. Hope this helps. Moreover these tools are cross platform and run on Linux/Mac/Windows.

I am new to the world of Unix and would like to install some type of editor to run Unix ssh commands on my windows PC. If that is not possible then how can i go about practicing Unix commands? I would be making directories and storing data in them if that helps.
From what I am reading you want to practice working in a unix command line on your windows PC. Is this correct?
If so I might recommend you check out cygwin.
ref: http://www.cygwin.com/
cygwin can install on a windows machine and provide you with an emulated linux shell. you can do pretty much anything basic you can do in linux in cygwin.
I would recommend two things which will enable you to use ssh:
1) If you want to keep on using Windows but have a remote machine on which you could login via ssh I recommend PUTTY.
2) You can set up a virtual machine using e.g. VirtualBOX.
I think, running a Linux VM on virtualbox is a better choice. You have a complete system to play with.
