    Tool for taking remote session

    Hi all,

    I am new to linux i wana know is there an option for taking the desktops remotely in linux (either desktop or a server) like how we are using the mstsc, mstsc/console in Windows XP by default.


    If not can we make it by installing any tool(s), if such so can you suggest me the tool(s) name.

    yes, it is called VNC, if you are using gnome, the default vnc server is vino, there are many different servers and clients you can use though I wouldn't mix them

    Or you can use rdesktop package to connect to windows systems.

    To install use yum ..
    yum -y install rdesktop
    When done use rdesktop and IP address of the machine you want to connect to.

    rdesktop 192.168.1.100
    Note: You need to enable remote desktop on your windows box.
