I need to redirect the sound from a remote Centos 5.2 computer to my local Centos 5.2 computer. Both are i386 OS.
Searching the web and Centos web site has indicated that it is possible but I have not found any information about how to do it.
I am currently using ssh and/or vnc to display the remote computer locally. At this point, the sound is being played on the remote computer only.
Thanks for any help, David

for this purpose you have to setup your local machine as a sound server. i have set up succesfully using this tutorial, > http://www.hackenberger.at/blog/gentoo-guides/how-to-play-sound-on-a-remote-...
my scenario : two computers on the same private network
on the first computer , i copy the line export ARTS_SERVER=ip of second machine:<port> to the currently logged in user's .bashrc file. Then play any mp3 with mplayer with audio output chosen as arts.
on the second machine start artsd with artsd -n -u -p 5001 option ( however please consider the security) and set up iptables or firewall to make the second computer to accept request from first computer on port 5001.
Try NX from nomachine.com. The Free version FreeNX is in the centos extras repo.
