Hi,

Terminal Server and Citrix provide a mechanisme for using the server as a shared resource in a windowed enviroment, while the display is send to the client.

What do you want to sent the client from SME ??

ok all,

But what do you want to display on the client machines?
 X windows perhaps?

Mitel SME doesn't have anything to share with terminals.

The project refered to by Boris and Edgar include X-windows or other gui things to share.

Ah RequestedDeletion cuts straight to the heart of the matter.

Allow me to add : "Yes, there is such a terminal server tool for your emsith - it's called SSH" :)
