You must install the xrdp package with "yum install xrdp" before you can use it. |

Seems to have a correct procedure, and may be a help for those who are unable to follow the CentOS page, and need a bit of hand-holding.

Then you failed to read the link.
P.S. I forgot to thank markkuk for pointing out something I should have known, but had totally forgotten. |

You must first enable the EPEL repo by installing their repo config as explained on the Repositories
page, then This is a new one on me, so I will be interested to hear how it works. |

If you install xrdp from EPEL in your CentOS system, you can use the Remote Desktop Connection software included in Windows to connect with your CentOS GUI desktop. Check the standard precautions for using third-party repos.

You have an over-constrained problem. You can't get there from here.
![]() You can either do everything within the ssh shell on the command line, or you can install some of the previously-mentioned software that will allow you to access a GUI desktop. You can't achieve a Linux GUI environment on Windows without installing anything else. Some of the options above may run in a web browser, but still require something to be installed. You could consider running a Linux distro from LiveCD/DVD, bypassing the limitations of Windows, but that would require a reboot every time you want to use it. The CentOS 6.2 LiveDVD mentioned on the home page could be a good choice for this approach. |

If you don't have an X-server running on the PC, or are not using something like VNC or NX, it is hardly surprising that you cannot run a Gnome desktop. Your SSH client is just that, and does not inherently support X-windows.
If you had read the links previously provided you should have known that, and provided some more substantive information about your system. Please at least follow all the links in this post, as well as the ones in my signature. |

The screen shot seems to have disappeared but it clearly showed something running on Windows, with Linux things in a window, if memory serves. We still need more information about the Linux system and how you are attempting to access it, presumably from Windows.

Host is SoftLayer, The NetWork is 100mbps uplink, shared over the container , you are using Plesk, but it is a Linux Operating System.

It also looks like a Windows host with no evidence of an X server that would support Xwindows clients, and an OpenVZ 2.6.18-028stab099.2 OpenVZ kernel - not real CentOS at all. As a minimum you need an X server on Windows. You would probably find it more efficient to run the window manager native on Windows and run X clients.
If more help is needed then please provide more information about your system by running "./getinfo.sh" on the maybe-CentOS VM and showing us the output file, along with more information about the host and the network environment. |
