Microsoft remote terminal from linux
I know it would be simple for a lot of people reading this blog :). But the easiest way to remote desktop into a windows machine using a X based linux distro is to install rdesktop. http://www.rdesktop.org For ubuntu and debian based distro, fire up the console and type sudo apt-get install rdesktop This would install the client. rdesktop <server IP/domain> This would fire up the windows remote desktop stuff.
