I'm recycling this thread to ask a similar question. Let's say that i 
have a windows box with sshd servicable on it.

A can remotely launch command on the win box with ssh (ssh 
user@host.domain.com "command args"). But what if the "command" is 
supposed to be a graphical program (in my case a popup created with 
AutoIt that display a message)?

"command" is launched and running but nothing is displayed on the 
screen, the gui application is just running in background.

Is there any way to make this program displaying on the current windows 
session? Note: in my case the ssh user is admin and the session user is 
user-only.

Any help?

All the best,

Nicolas
