I don't know if it's the right forum (if it's not can a mod move it to the right one)
I'm living in my school campus and i have access to the comp inside the school (i can access them through telnet) but with telnet i can only do line of command and i want to launch some program and have the window showing on my comp in my room. I'm using win2k

as far as i understand you want to run a unix/linux program inside windows 2k?

you need cygwin (www.cygwin.com) it emulates linux so you can run linux programs under windows (i've done this myself before)

No it's not what i want maybe i've not been clear in my description
I have access to computer that runs under unix (sun stations). By using telnet i can launch command lines (like pwd, mkdir,...) but now i want to be able to run graphic software on the distant machine (like jgrasp or even dtpad) and control them on my comp
Hope that's clearer

Too lazy to find exact product, you might have to call them and explain the type of control you need. They have trial versions too.

Want to install an XWindows Emulator on your system Hummingbird has an excellent product I have used. It will run them from the other system and the GUI or Command line will run locally.

Or you could try PC X

Hope this helps
