Hello,

Iam looking for something like the remote desktop in Windows XP for my gentoo machine, which is configured with LTSP4.2, DHCP, LDAP, GDM, LFTP and sitting on a local network with connection to Internet.

Any ideas?

TIA

Well, ltsp has rdesktop as a dependency:
Code:
net-misc/ltsp-4.2-r1  USE="X audiofile rdesktop scanner -debug -esd -nas -snmp"


Code:
$ qsearch rdesktop
net-misc/grdesktop Gtk2 frontend for rdesktop
net-misc/rdesktop A Remote Desktop Protocol Client


That help any? Or take carpenike's suggestion of VNC. That works good, too.
