cbagger01,
thanks for your post, but I would like to have something less slow than vnc. That's why I dream of a kind of rdesktop server.
skaos,
thanks for the tip, but it don't really work the way I want.

I discover a kind of solution in browsing the net: xrdp-02.tar.gz
The problem: I don't know if I can use it so, or instead, how to make a .dsl extension.
Could someone help me?

You are looking for a server for DSL, yes?

DSL already has the built-in ability to make OUTGOING Remote desktop connections.

If you are unhappy with the performance of VNC, you can try to connect via 8-bit (256 color) mode, or you can use TightVNC to improve performance.

Good Luck.

thanks again,

I tried xrdp-0.2.tar.gz with the mydsl-load command but without success (not enough time to try more). I red that it depends on xlib library; I hope DSL has it.

I look forward and tell you more if I can manage it.

xrdp-0.2 could be of very great use as DSL-server for remote desktop control, because it would also enables you to access to your machine with the VNC client of DSL. It is a 154 kb app and there were a new version built early in this year. A challenger of VNC?
