NX 3.x was KVM based ( with enhancements ), thus the only viable remote
desktop protocols that I know of are KVM and RDP ( MS's Remote Desktop
Protocol ). Anything else really does not apply.

With today's network speeds I basically use KVM ( tunneled via SSH )
Even install in on my work MS Windows servers.

I would recommend trying to strike up a conversation on the NX IRC
channel and see if there is a way to get NX 4.x to do what you need. NX
is still the best solution, with VNC a fallback if there is no other way.
