Does anyone know of a appilcation that will remote desktop from windows to a linux machine? I want to be able to edit a linux box from a windows system, but can't find any thing by google, it all seems to be linux to windows. This is kind of hard to explain when one is drunk... basically I want to buy a virtual/dedcated server and remote desktop it from windows, as linux servers are cheaper.

Any help for a drunk but serious request/hobby.

Try Teamviewer

I don't know much on the situation, but that program has done me very well.

Here's the link:

tightVNC

simple simple to setup and run, and industry standard.

I struggled onto elastichosts and watched a demo for their packages and they said to use tightVNC too. I was using it last night and just before with elastichosts free trail and it worked great, just have to find a cheap host in the UK or Europe now.
