There are at least 3 ways that will work. One is to install
X on the windows boxes (the free cygwin version is fine), enable
XDCMP on the server and log in with 'xwin -query server'. Or
you can use -multiwindow mode if you just want to run individual
apps from Linux instead of a whole desktop. The latter mode
would consume the least server resources.
Another is to let xinetd start the vnc sessions so everyone
gets their own. This would take no changes on the windows
side but has slighly worse performance than native X on a
local LAN. (Note that the k12ltsp distribution, a slightly
modified fedora, has this mode enabled by default).
Another is to install freenx on the server and the free
nxclient software from www.nomachine.com. This is the best
for low-bandwidth connections and is an easy install on
the windows boxes compared to cygwin X.
