[ale] remote X from other OSs

[Gary Maltzen]

(The protocol is: ask away, as you did)

IMBO (B=biased):

The professional solution would be to run Hummingbird's Exceed as the
X-Server on your Windows workstations; about $300/seat as I recall.
Hummingbird will send you a 30-day eval CD for the asking.

Alternative, the other two reasonably good X-Servers I've run across for
Wintel include X-Win32 (www.starnet.com) (eval download) at about $200/seat
and SuperX (www.frontiertech.com) (eval download) price unknown.

I don't know the protocol for a "delurk" for a maillist..but here goes.

My name is Jeff Martin, I am one of the members of the Linux Club at
Devry (decatur).

We have convinced the Administration that we need a Linux server inside
the firewall-- since there will only be one for the next 10 weeks , and
then only three, we wanted to have some kind of software on the Windows
machines so that X-windows could be run on multiple machines
concurrently.
