Hi Anne

try
http://freenx.berlios.de (FreeNX) and nxclient from http://www.nomachin.com.
The clients are for several OS's.

I like the speed and the reconnect option. That means you can shutdown
your client computer without stopping the processes on the server. You
can reconnect later and look at the results.

cheers
Reimar
