sshd interaction with desktop not working

[mhallnh]

I guess I'll go back to my original solution which is to use PsExec from
Sysinternals.

It's a little more complicated because you have to first run a script to
retrieve the Windows Session ID

This script works:
$username = 'mhall'
$results = psexec \\192.168.X.XXX query session
$id = $results | Select-String "$username\s+(\w+)" |
                 Foreach {$_.Matches[0].Groups[1].Value}


Then you can follow up by invoking the windows program (notepad in the
example below).
the 'i' switch is used to indicate that you want to interact with the
windows desktop

psexec \\192.168.X.xxx -u $username -i $id -d notepad.exe

pause
