Any Linux server for Win Remote Desktop client?

I know about different Windows RD clients able to connect to Linux servers, but is there any Linux remote desktop server which is able to support the native XP Remote Desktop /TS client?
Remember, I can't install anything in XP, I can only use the standard RD client from there.

If your question is to access windows xp machine from linux , then you need to install rdesktop rpm in linux and use it from shell.

No, the other way round: I need to access Linux desktop using the native Windows XP RD client.

I've searched in Google with query "RDP server for Linux" and got this link in the search results: http://www.whenpenguinsattack.com/20...ver-for-linux/. Probably, it may be be useful for you.
