I'm forwarding the following message to see if anyone has a positive solution.

Don Barrett



 Hello,

I have access character-based UNIX environments using the Tera Term
(http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA002416/teraterm.html) telnet program from Microsoft Windows systems for several years. However, UNIX-based GUI-based applications are increasingly productive, and difficult to compete with.

For their UNIX work, my company is standardizing on Linux Redhat 9, using the KDE desktop. At the moment, my company does not want individuals running Linux Desktops on their own PC's. They want to run the KDE desktop on remote servers, and to have people access this environment through the Exceed terminal emulator

(http://connectivity.hummingbird.com/home/connectivity.html?cks=y) program. My company thinks that Gnome desktop is not secure. As far as GUI's are concern, this setup does not seem to be accessible.

I have had little luck Accessing Solaris 8 X-Windows applications through Exceed.


I am trying to get a transfer to the Microsoft Windows end of the business.

Questions

1. Has anyone successfully used Exceed with X-Window applications?

2. If I were able to persuade my company to allow me to use a Linux Desktop, how would I go about setting up an accessible Linux Redhat 9 KDE X- Window
system?  By listening to list-serves, I am aware that most of the
accessibility work has been done for the Gnome desktop.

Regards
