question - does stuff like VNC (which also works on windows) not suffice ?
RDP/VNC should work for this.
Little confused, can this be used for Remote Desktop sharing, like VNC?
VNC and RDP work pretty great without it.
There is an RDP implementation called xrdp - it's not too bad
X Windows and RDP/VNC, it is nothing new.
It uses RDP (much faster than VNC).
RDP built into windows should work well?
personally I found xrdp server w/ RDP client works great.
I have a remote work environment using x2go. It's as good or better then rdp.
