It should give you X windows - basically a real bland type... Right
click should give you the X windows menu... And so on.

It's not like the windows version where you move the mouse and it moves
the mouse on the local screen. It has its own "terminal" so to speak.

Although, in the latest Mandrake (9.0, soon 9.1) they have actually
implemented their own (I think its their own) sort of "remote admin"
version of Linux VNC, where it acts like the windows VNC.. i.e you
control the users mouse, KB etc.
