Greetings everybody,
I have been working on QNX for sometime now and am slowly shifting my attention towards Linux. I have Redhat 7.0 running and would probably be replacing the QNX server with this one. We use a GUI called phindows on our windows machines over the LAN for QNX which allows remote access to the QNX server I currently have. I am not sure if there is something like that for linux too. If some one has any idea about such a thing, I would really appreciate if you can tell me about it.
Thanks.

Linux can run X server.. and XDMCP to remote systems
Windows can run a variety of X systems Exceed, Xwin32 etc etc which can connect to the XDMCP from the linux server and allow users to put applications running on the X linux server on their local desktops.

Lots of choices out there .. the commercial ones for windows are a little expensive .. don't know about Open Source ones myself, shareware and freeware are virtually nonexistent.

Thanks Lorithar...

I tried the Xwin32 but, its probably not the kind of thing I was looking for. Its close though. Thanks.
