Do you happen to be one of the people who occasionally have to work
with NT/W2K? Do you find that you need to access these boxes through MS
terminal server? Are you forced to log into a Windows client just so you can
connect through MS terminal server? Feeling listless and run down as a
result? Then this is for you!
I had a chance to try out this rather cool little terminal server client for
Linux and I must admit that I am impressed. It's your classic extract,
configure, make and make install build. It's also included on a number of Linux
distributions in a friendly RPM format. Either way, it's a piece of cake and works like a charm. Start by looking on your distribution CDs, or head over to this friendly little URL.

Accessing Windows Terminal Server From Linux
Having to support Wintendo in order to pay for nice gadgets, I use rdesktop quite often. Heaps better than VNC, and far more secure.
"apt-get install rdesktop" for all you Debian-ites (or Libranetties) out there.
