Hi Jerry,

I use remote via internet extensively...
But a lot of Ideas are get mixed up in this thread here... so I'll just do a quick rundown:
Rdesktop on linux works better than RDP on XP.
SSH -X is ssssllllooooowwww. vnc over ssh is faster. Nx over ssh is fastest.
What do you really need/want....
Some background info. We now have a vpn solution with GVC, and I am running XP at home/office with remote desktop. So I can use the same development enviroment at home/office. I want to switch over to SuSE (home/office), but I want to know there is a solution that is fast enough to work with (ssh -X isnt). So (maybe) I would prefer to use vnc over ssh _if_ that is fast enough to work with (I dont know anything about nx). And I want to work with the remote suse as it was local.
if all you need is to remote into a Linux machine then Nx and ssh is your best bet. (If the remote is SUSE I give you setup guides)
I am going to install SuSE at office, but I am not there yet. Rohnny
