Accessing desktop from Windows

[Ken Murray]

I have been doing this very thing for months.  It works flawlessly!  At work
I use an NT box to connect to a Linux box at home which is running as a
masquerading firewall, from the Linux box, I run the viewer to connect to a
Windoze box inside the network.  Give it a try, you'll love it!
