| On a test machine using Cygwin/Xfree86 one may telnet from the | X-terminal and establish an xterm (bash) session but then invoking | 'rdesktop.exe' will not open a session on the remote display. | 'rdesktop.exe' does open a session window on the console display if | invoked from a console command prompt.
rdesktop.exe, compiled how? It needs to be compiled with X11 support to be displayed on the X11 terminal. [...] | As you can see our hope is to build an alternative to Citrix | to present Win2k desktop sessions on X-terminals using only one | Win2k host. We can now do that using one Win2k host and one | unix host to manage the X-terminals. A doublecheck, desktop sessions is windows desktop sessions with normal windows apps? You think that rdesktp.exe can do this? Provide the sessions on the 'server'? If so, just a quick thought how come you think (could be true, could be false) rdesktop.exe can provide and export the 'session' of one 'virtual' windows session to a remote host? I thought it was just a viewer, and rdesktop.exe is used to see sessions on other computers, a client, not a server? BTW Isn't there a vnc-port that does a bit of this? Can do sessions.. or is it that it can send just windows.. /Andy -- Everything that was magical was just a way of describing the world in words it couldn't ignore. - "Pyramids" by Terry Pratchett Please note, new email, @telia.com -> @comhem.se
