Depends what you mean:
a. Terminal services, or b. pcanywhere(tm)
If it's (a), then you've got a wide choice of:
o command line services, telnet, etc. (the command line mysql client is
pretty good imho).
o X-windows, (using the DISPLAY variable)
o VNC, etc...
If you're looking for a PCAnyWhere-alike, then the only
one I've found is x0rfbserver, which is available at
http://www.hexonet.de/software/x0rfbserver/
(not tried it myself, but I've heard it's pretty good) This should
allow you to control a server, (your database one?) from many
clients, (it's supposed to be compatible with the VNC clients), from
PalmPilots through to PC's etc.
Note that VNC gives you (unless there's been a lot of changes since
I last looked at it a year ago!) a desktop on the destination machine.
It doesn't give you control of a particular screen, the same way that
the Windows remote control software does.

Bob Cross.
