I can't say I have much experience with this. I have none, but I saw a
demonstration of this on one in on one of the exhibitions that were
recently.
1) NT 5.0 will have this capability natively.
(microsoft licensed citrix's winframe code for this).
the NT has a special Xclient, that is opened on the your Xserver and shows
the NT console.
2) AFAIK, currently there is only NT solutions for this and none for
win95. programs I know for this is: NTRIGUE, Citrix and NCD wincenter.
3) I have no idea. but I doubt it. should be interesting to try one of
these products on Hebrew enabled NT server.
