Linux Gazette issue 32 titled "Running Remote X sessions on Windows
95/98/NT/Mac/PPC Clients" is also worth reading.
This article also mentions the MI/X server. It suggests the download sites at
http://tnt.microimages.com/www/html/freestuf/mix/ or ftp.brokewing.com/pub/mix.
I am not sure if these sites still exist. If not, fire up your search engine!
I use the MI/X server and it works in the 95/NT machines in my office. Well I
cannot say it is good as you can image how much a twm window manager can support
you but it helps me a lot because I have to switch tasks between 95/NT and the
HP-UX server in the office.

Thanks. I'd quite forgotten about this product. It is on my SuSE 5.2 disk as
well, in /dosutils/mix . I can't find it on my SuSE 6.2 evaluation disk, at
least not in the same location, but the file /dosutils/Readme.dos still
lists it as included, so I don't know if the problem is outdated
documentation on the disk or an oversight in production of the copy I
received (as a promo last August at LinuxWorld).
Has anone actually used this product? Any opinions about it?
