    Well, I was thinking about that too, but today I bring my NB with SuSE
    9.3on it to work and with rdesktop I can connect to server with my
    name and
    passw...!!! I don't get it...? How the hell W2003 server are managing CAL
    licences? Where I can find what is wrong to connect from my PC...?

    As for the timeout, check out the settings on the Windows 2003 box.

    Yep. I will try VMware. I have Codeweavers CorssOver Office but my app do
    not work there. Main problem is that my PC is not so new, PIII 700 with
    512MB SDRAM. I care how VMware will perform...?

    Thank you all for kind answers!!!
