Hi,

Is it possible to execute an application on say a NT Server on computer 1
while watching the UI on compuer 2 also with NT like in unix?

For workgroups with small PC's and a powerfull Server this can be desiring.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

	Hi, Willie--

Look into Microsoft's SMS (System Management Server).  It may not
exactly, but it lets you do a lot of neat remote tricks.

Otherwise, for GUI stuff, you need SMS, which has a remote control feature
(keyboard and mouse war, etc etc).

You can do this. You buy one of the NT win to X protcol+proper
multi-user support on NT 3rd party packages a pwoerfull NT boxes and a
load of cheap X servers (for example 486 linux boxes). The fact that
you have to buy this stuff is an inditement of NT, of course.

WinFrame from Citrix (www.citrix.com) does this with NT3.51
Microsoft have bought the Multi-win technology from Citrix and it
should be included in NT5.
