You mean like VNC or SSH? Please use more descriptive thread titles, it makes it much easier for all of us to know what your threads are about.

x-win32

Got fork out the cash for it though ($60 US for students). My school has it on their Windows boxes, and it works pretty well. You can also use SSH with X forwarding. In your /etc/ssh/sshd_config file you'll need to change the X11Forwarding to "yes". When connecting via ssh, use the ssh -X -C -l username host
the -X is for X forwarding, and -C compresses the data.

^^ As above, be more specific in your "Subject". If your specific, you'll get more people who can actually help you.
