9 I just tried nxserver-freeedition, it works and nice speed!
10 I can run VirtuaBoxbox but it might not be what be a solution I'm looking for; or I am implementing it a wrong way.

12 I'm running Windows XP via VirtualBox and it runs OK but I need to access that Windows XP while it is running from internal network.
13 Windows XP is running on the same box as nxserver-freeedition and I need to access it from another machine on local lan.
14
15 I think I need to establish a connection with Linux via SAMBA to access Windows XP isn't it but I'll not be able to execute any program I think.
16 How about running nomachine server in Windows XP can I access it from Linux and run Windows programs?
17
18 Does anybody have a better idea?
