Re: Equivalent of Citrix or Windows Terminal Server for Linux?

[Aly Dharshi <aly.dharshi@xxxxxxxxx>]

You may find that there is success with the nomachine.com style FreeNX server or 
if you have the $$$ ESX server from VMWare, if its for a local workstation and 
its just for yourself then you can try VMWare Workstation Edition or something 
like that.
