How can I use a gui on linux from windows?

[hambleto]

O.k. I have seen things on exporting displays and such but I am lost.. Here is my delema.. I have a linux box on my home network with RH 7.1 (on dual pIII). This machine is in the basement. I normaly use my win98se laptop and log into it through SecureCRT and use the console. However, I would like to be able to use the gui from my laptop. Is there a way that I can get the linux desktop on the linux box to appear on my win98 laptop? I hope I am making sense. If this is something that will actualy work.. please tell me how to do this or what software I need to do this?
Thank you for your time,

I tried the software.. It is O.k. But is there a way to get a full blown redhat desktop to be viewable from Windows? So that I can see RH login box and all? I doubt this is possible.. But I can hope?
Thank you again.

It is posible to get what you want. Please read http://www.linuxnewbie.org/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=13&t=004922 for your solution. It is very simple.

See if you can get a copy of Hummingbird. It's pretty pricey but it works like a charm.
