Hi James,
I recomend you to use "rdesktop" it's a virtual windows machine ... but you still need a Windows NT server or 2000 server ... I think that it's the best solution for this actually! ... you can open a windows session on you linux client and only the mouse and keyboard commands traffic on the network ... www.rdesktop.org Take a look and see some snapshots ... bye []'s LoRD >From: "James Tremlett" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: [Ltsp-discuss] replacement for NT Terminal Server Edition >Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2002 17:46:02 -0000 > >Hi, >I currently use Windows NT TSE to provide terminal services to a number of >Windows-based clients, running the standard TS client.
