Another alternative in this case is to use Cygwin/X which will give you a real XWindows server on your Windows box. See http://x.cygwin.com/ for details. Across a LAN Cygwin/X will probably feel a bit more responsive/natural. Across the internet VNC is much better. You could always try both and see which you prefer. :-) Cheers, Rasjid. -- Rasjid Wilcox Canberra, Australia (UTC +10 hrs) http://www.openminddev.net _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
