Remote Desktop

Howdy.

I think if I ask another question about my server someone's gonna kill me, but oh well.

I'm using a Linux server for my game, using Ubuntu Linux Server 6.06 (the long-support version).

I don't have room to have a screen connected.

I have a Windows XP machine that I use daily.

I was wondering if there is any sort of remote desktop software, that is free, that would allow me to manage the server from my Windows XP machine, rather than having to use a screen with the Linux server?
 
Check Google?

I know there is plenty of software that will let you run Windows XP -> Windows XP remote desktops. I am not sure if there is any that lets you run it between Windows and Linux, though.
 
The best thing to use is a thing called a VNC Server/Client.
Get for windows a program called UltraVNC and linux VNC server/client software called TightVNC, it is completly graphic, and very good speeds!
