I have a feeling the answer to this is "it's not possible", as I have googled a fair bit already. However, as I do cross platform development I would like to simultaneously work on my Linux laptop in the sitting room, beside the fire, and use the command prompt on my Windows XP machine which is in a different room, the study (colder!). This is because as I change code on Linux I would like to test regularly on Windows.
If I had installed Windows on the laptop I could have used ssh into Linux, but it is a low spec machine so I installed lubuntu instead. So, as James T Kirk would say "there's got to be a way".
install cygwin on windows and start ssh daemon on it. you will then be able to ssh into windows and get a familiar console window

I was just about to try sshing for the first time and before I get into it, I want to know what's the best way to go about it. In particular, I'm currently running Linux through crouton on an HP chromebook and I want to ssh into and old windows 7 pc. Ideally I would love to have some sort of bash shell inside the windows ssh as I'm not so confident with cmd but I can make do. Are there any packages/apps that I should install on my old pc before I start trying. Preferably if there was something like WSL but for windows 7 that'd be great but I can't seem to find anything like it.
there is no ssh daemon (service) for windows from Microsoft.
So installing shell on windows, it is only about run it locally.
To connect with ssh on remote windows, you should install 3rd party ssh server on windows.

I am planning to compile and run code in a linux environment. Before moving to a linux environment I want to try it out, virtual box and dual boot will take my memory. So, after updating my windows 10 anniversary updates, I was able to install bash (ubuntu) natively to my windows 10 through windows features. After installing bash when I try to run bash it's popping and closing a windows immediately. how can I solve this. I tried this with two pc, no luck. How can I solve this issue. Which registry file should I change ?
Turn your windows to developer mode, go to settings -> search for developer, then change to developer mode. Restart your pc. It should work now

I have VMware Fusion 5 installed on my Mac, and have software installed on the Windows partition, that for various reasons, I would like to use via the Mac OSX Terminal rather than going through the VMware Fusion GUI of logging into my Windows VM and running command prompt and then running the software. I would prefer it if Terminal could access the windows command prompt of the vm machine, so that I can run the software from my Mac directly. I am happy to have them/would expect the Mac and Windows machines to be running side by side simultaneously.
Is this possible? I.e. can the Mac OSX Terminal access the VM Windows partition command prompt directly? And if so, how would one do this?
I had considered ssh but that seemed long-winded sending data backwards and forwards via the internet given that it is on a local machine and considered that there must be another/smarter alternative...also wasn't really sure it would work ssh'ing into from a Mac to Windows machine...
p.s. Sorry if SO isn't quite the right forum, and that there isn't quite a reproducible example, but have tried to explain the situation carefully to allow the community to help if possible. But if there is a better way to get a solution to my problem by either migrating or suggesting edits to the question that will make it a better question I would be more than happy to do so.
vmrun is the function that needs to be use used. I found it after a bit more searching...so the following will pretty much do the job...
/Applications/VMware\ Fusion.app/Contents/Library/vmrun -T fusion -gu <user\ name> -gp <password> runProgramInGuest /Users/<hostUserName>/Library/Application\ Support/VMware\ Fusion/Virtual\ Machines/Boot\ Camp/Boot\ Camp.vmwarevm/Boot\ Camp.vmx -interactive -noWait -activeWindow C:\\Windows\\Notepad.exe C:\\testing.txt
This link is quite useful http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vix162_vmrun_command.pdf

I have a system with two operating systems - Windows 7 and Ubuntu. Now I want to run a program in both Ubuntu and Windows.
To explain better, I want to run the Windows program while I am working in Ubuntu. Is that possible?
You cannot normally run two operating systems at the same time, because both want to take over all the hardware.
There are basically two options:
use virtualization to run one operating system inside the other
run the "foreign" application using some kind of compatibility layer, such as Cygwin (for running Linux apps on Windows) or Wine (for running Windows apps on Linux)

How can I launch the entire Windows operating system inside Ubuntu. Something similar to Parralel Desktops. Free, please.
The keyword you're looking for is virtualization. There are MANY tools for hosting virtual machines. Ububtu has information specific to it, so you might start there. Other common options are virtual box, vmware, and xen, among many others. All of these have free options.
I'm doing the opposite (an entire Ubuntu box inside of Windows) via http://www.virtualbox.org/
The same thing will work for your case (Windows inside Ubuntu).
