Thanks for the tips, I will look further into VMWare versions. Good to know there are options on connecting too. I have been using TightVNC client/server and it has been very responsive for the Linux desktop, the delay is very minor over being at the console. (I had tried using the original VNC about 5 years ago and quickly looked for alternatives.) Paul Boniol -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NLUG" group.
