I remember the good old days of using XDMCP. It worked really well when
connecting to SUN workstations from a Windows computer. I tried to set
up XDMCP on my system not too long ago but without luck. I think I
managed to get windows from individual programs to open on my client at
best (which looked really ugly) and I find the the xming software to be
a pain to work with.
I know that KVM also uses a protocol called Spice. I don't know much
about it but I believe that it is intended to be able to also deliver 3D
acceleration to the client. I think it is through the VirtualGL
(www.virtualgl.org) and Gallium3D interfaces...
I see that I messed up my last post a bit. The name of the package with
the vnc server is SUNWxvnc.

If you want lots of remote connections then a really good solution
would be to look at running SunRays, or at least the SunRay software.
Although I never used the FreeNX in anger, it might be a reasonable
compromise. I was looking at it as a way of allowing a common
graphical interface (with access to our locally held quality system)
for our Linux laptops, but I was really surprised by how well it
worked, it uses XDMCP.

That also crossed my mind. VNC comes with OI out of the box (I think) and is
probably in the package SUWxvnc. All you have to do is run vncserver e.g.
over ssh and the system is ready for incoming VNC connections.
But there may be reasons where one might prefer RDP over VNC (although I
don't know any OTOH) . VirtualBox generally deliver the VMs over RDP with
its own interface and you can configure the RDP connection to be optimized
in different ways (e.g. for showing video). I actually think it
automatically detects video streams and compresses them with JPEG.

whynot try installing VNC on your M$windows... for example TigerVNC
seems to work well...
