If you want multiple sessions I suppose you're forced to use something like Windows Terminal server. On Thu, 7 Feb 2002, Grainge, Derek wrote:
AFAIK xwinx is a single user system. You can't run multiple sessions. Ditto VNC. Therefore neither will allow multiple Linux workstations to access a shared WIndows CD ?

Thanks, Roger - I hadn't come across that one before!
Another way to do it is to use rdesktop and NT4 Terminal Server (or Win2000 Terminal Services). I have found it easy to use rdesktop to log in to a Win2000 server some 50 miles away, across the Internet and with 512K connections at each end. It will certainly work with the bandwidth available in a LAN.
