Running unattended interactive process from ssh bash shell

Running unattended interactive process from ssh bash shell

[Eli Lauris]

Hi,
Perhaps someone could help me with a problem. I need to run a process that 
pops up some GUI; though it doesn't require any user interaction. I can 
run the process fine from a bash shell that I open within terminal 
services session or on the system console. However, when I run the same 
command from an ssh bash shell, it hangs at the point where the process 
tries to display GUI.  Is there some way to allow the process to pop up 
its GUI to the system console ? I don't really care about what it 
displays; I just need to process to finish running.

Thanks.
Please email me directly, as I don't check the archives frequently.

I will assume you're running sshd as a service and would suggest you check
the "allow service to interact with the desktop" check box under logon in
the service properties.
