[lug] Linux Thin Clients

[James Borley]

Check out http://www.rdesktop.org/

I played around with 1.3.0, seemed pretty decent.

(from the sourceforge page):
Since 1.2.0, support has been added for:

* RDP5
* 15, 16 and 24 bit color depths
* Basic clipboard redirection
* Sound
* IPv6
* Attaching to console on Windows 2003
