Linux terminal services.
Putty
terminal (for Windows) understands minion
tasks such as host verification, data encryption, virtual
terminal network tunneling and X11 port forwarding! The
ssh server running in Linux offers all the above plus the
security model that all Unix-inspired operating systems
adopt!

|
File server: With the
help of the terminal we configure Samba in Linux. SMB is widely
known as the Microsoft File and Printer Sharing protocol.
Samba also serves the Netbios protocol.

Putty
as a Dumb Terminal.
By interconnecting the server's - client's serial ports
we can communicate old style. The dumb terminal can also
be an old pc with a tiny linux custom installation, an
old Windows 3.x machine or even a DOS installation - or
just a bootdisk with serial/modem clients like Telix.

Aside
from terminal and remote command, SSH in my Linux server also
supports secure copy with host verification and data
encryption. WinSCP for
Windows here uses the Norton Commander style. Explorer style
(i.e. 1 panel) is also available. Each style has its own
keyboard shortcuts, Commander option using the
traditional Norton ones i.e. F5 for copy etc.

Making
the database backbone: MySQL in the Linux server is
tested by the HeidiSQL frontend in the Windows client.
After ODBC configuration, MS Office and Openoffice.org
take off client/server style. |

|
Organizing
a peer2peer backend in the linux server: MLDonkey
is edonkey2000 and bittorrent
compatible. Sancho is an
MLDonkey frontend for Windows. Frontends on several
computers can connect simultaneusly. |

This is
3 in 1 hidden! Local Windows XP Desktop using the
"XManager" XServer runs rdesktop from my linux server
which connects remotely to my laptop's Windows XP
desktop! In this screenshot I didn't have to call an
intermediate linux GUI but this can be possible also.
|

|
This is
3 in 1 visible! All 3 desktops are present. Local
Workstation (Windows XP + XManager), Linux Server
(Blackbox Xterm Rdesktop) and finally Notebook Win XP
Desktop through Remote Desktop Connection.

Real VNC Server
implementing the XWindow protocol inside Linux without a
real XServer! RealVNC viewer on Windows! Xvnc
server scriptable, secure, user privileged, respawning
on need! Also: TightVNC viewing
Xfce4.
