It is possible with additional software. Citirx Metaframe is an add-on to Windows Terminal Services (for NT4 Terminal Server or W2K with Terminal Services installed). It uses its own protocol (ICA) rather than Microsoft's RDP protocol for remote control of a Windows session. Citrix provides free (as in beer) ICA clients for most operating systems, including Linux. You can get more information at www.citrix.com.
Metaframe is a rather expensive piece of software, but it adds so much functionality to Windows Terminal Services that it I wouldn't think of deploying Terminal Server without it except for small installations only to Windows clients. -----Original Message----- From: Richie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], "Robert MacLean" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Fri, 2 Nov 2001 10:11:17 -0500 Subject: Re: [newbie] windows 2k terminal services On November 2, 2001 04:35 am, Robert MacLean wrote: > Hi > > does anyone know if it is possible to use terminal services from m8.1? > either through wine, or another method? > > ___________________________________________ > Robert MacLean I've seen some TS clients for X but they were commercial. However, a new app launch scolled by on my news ticker that might get you closer and it's called "xwinx". It runs on the Win32 desktop and sends screen updates straight to your X server. It's appeal seems to be that it's just an app that sends updates, no client or additional servers required. Richie
