If you are NEVER going to use multiple monitors on a PC then PCXware by NCD
is available (higher cost then eXceed also)

www.starnet.com

Shareware (try before you buy) - but rather expensive to buy (register): $200.

The product is quite good - looks like it is all there.  I mention the price
to make it clear that this is not just the usual freeware junk.

There are several cheap/free options out there, but if you are looking for
the real thing and have the $$$ to spend, Xwin-32 is good.

Try Goglobal (www.graphon.com)and Citrix(MetaFrame1.8 For NT/Win2000
and MetaFrame 1.0 for Unix/Solaris)
I think the Citrix(http://www.citrix.com)product is better than other!

You don't like Exceed?

I've tried PC-Xware, WebTerm-X, and Exceed.  Of those, Exceed is the
best and WebTerm-X is second best.

exceed is ok. but to me keaX (earlier known as extraX from dec) seemed
a bit faster.

We use Exceed by Hummingbird.  Many other people do also, and
it generally works well.

Assuming you mean X server (the X server is what is doing the displaying),
there is a free alternative called VNC.  Strictly speaking, it is not an
X server that runs on Windows; it runs the X server on the Unix computer,
while also running a VNC protocol server on the Unix computer.  VNC
protocol clients can then run on the Windows computers to view and control
the X stuff.  A VNC server also exists for Windows, so Windows computers'
consoles can be remote-controlled.  VNC allows multiple VNC clients to
connect to a VNC server, so a "show and tell" situation can be created.

I've only tried two X-client software, PCXware and ExCeed.  PCXware does not
support multiple monitors in Win98.  ExCeed does.  Some of the systems I
want
X-client software on are multiple monitors (2,3 and 5 monitors!).  PCXware
will not let you even access your other monitors when it is running!  My
question
is this:  Are there any other X-client software programs that supports
multiple monitors in
Windows 98, besides ExCeed?

including LBX, Xweb plugins for Netscape and IE, multiple monitor
support on Win98).

You left out one of the best parts of VNC - it is stateless. If your
winbloze box blue-screens you can pick up where you left off without
losing the session.  The downside is it doesn't deal well with
double-buffered video (Openview, frinstance) and blinking gif files.

1. help with X-win32 client software

Hi Everyone,
First of all, I would like to thank everyone for their help in assisting me
learn Linux.  I have been using Linux for almost 8 months now.  Come
from Windows NT (MCSE+I) background.  One day, I decide to give Linux
 a try and fall in love with ever since.  IMHO, Linux is must more stable
and robust than Microsoft Windows (crash-prone, sorry to Microsoft
Professional but that's the fact).  I've learned quite a bit about Linux now
that I recommend it to my manager to implement Linux in our corporate
environment.  I even learn SSH which I think is really COOL.  Having say
that, now to my problem.  

There are few users in our network that are still using windows.  Sometimes
they would like to connect to a Linux server.  The client software running
on Microsoft windows is X-win32 version 5.2.  Right now I am having
problem connecting X-client (ie. X-win32) to Linux.  As far as network
connectivity is concern, there is no problem.  I can see all the nodes on
the network (ping works).  On the Linux machine, I configure it to run xdm,
which is working fine.  

On the Microsoft side, configure a session suing X-config.  I connect to the
Linux server using rexec.  The command line is:
/usr/bin/X11/xhost -ls -display 207.172.112.23:0.0 where 207.172.112.23
is the IP address of the Microsoft windows machine.  I set window mode
in X-win32 as both.  As far as the security tab in X-win32 is concern, I
don't know what I have to put there.  

When I tried to connect to the Linux server with X-win32, I got the following
screen:  XDMCP Host Menu from localhost.localdomain.  Underneath,
I get the word LIST and 3 buttons:  cancel, accept, ping.  If I choose
accept, I see nothing on the screen, same with ping and cancel.

If I change to rexec, I got the following messages:  connection refused.
there are no restrictions on my linux server (i.e. hosts.allow and hosts.deny).
I am at a lost now.

When I connect to the Linux Server from Microsoft Windows, which mode
should I connect?  XDMP, rexec, rlogin??????  What else do I have to
configure on the Linux Server side?  What do I have to configure in X-win32
for this to work?  If anybody has a solution to this please send me an

Bottom line,  PLEASE HELP.

THANKS EVERYONE FOR THEIR HELP AND EFFORTS......
David
