There is xrdp and I have packaged it for RPMforge, but I am not sure if it is completely usable. (ie. I haven't figured out how to use it and therefor I didn't make the proper sysv script etc...)
On a somewhat related note, what is the best/easiest way to set up a CentOS system to be able to access an existing X desktop remotely (like Remote Desktop on Windows)? I have used VNC in the past, but I had to create a new VNC session. I want to be able to access my existing desktop remotely and not a separate VNC desktop. Can nx do this (I've heard about nx on this mailing list, but have not yet read any documentation)?
Thanks, Alfred
CentOS has "Desktop Sharing" built in. Look for it in one of the settings/preferences menus. "Enable desktop sharing", and then you can use VNC as a remote client.
