[Paraview-developers] xterm -e ssh for windows and mac

[Scott, W Alan]

As I mentioned at our Sandia/ LANL/Kitware quarterly, we need some solution in order to allow users to connect Windows and OSX ParaView to pvserver running on a cluster.  It needs to be better than our current solution of arm waving and ignoring the issue.  On Linux, this is done with an xterm and ssh.  Currently, Sandia has a custom solution (that is out of date and hard to build). I would rather have a common solution, and the global user community needs a solution.

To start the discussion, I see one of two paths we can take:

*         Kitware provide a solution built into ParaView.

*         Kitware provide detailed instructions on the Wiki for users to build this themselves.

Where do we go from here?

p.s. - I think I included everyone needed for the discussion.  If I missed anyone, feel free to add them.
