[lug] Remote admin linux to windows

[Dave Treece]

Doesn't that work? If the machine you want to control is windows (or mac 
based) then logmein works (pc/mac client). I use firefox on Linux to 
work on my Windows box via logmein. Or maybe I missed the actual 
requirement. If you trying to get onto linux from anything then I think 
vnc is probably the better choice.
