Putty for a windows box, then...

And if not windows, then doesn't OS X have ssh? And aren't ther VNC clients and servers for it?

New Not that
"you may want to run a lighter window manager (like XFCE) to make the connection"

I read that as using a light window manager from work. Which isn't exactly an option on a locked-down XP box.

New Poor bastard
My new job starts in a week.

100% Windows.

The entire company MUST access the web via the MS Proxy server.

I'm bringing in the 1st Linux server, 1st Linux desktop, and I get to setup my Win laptop at will.

There will be an SSH Linux bounce box placed on the DMZ for me. I get full admin access. ssh and https redirected in, unlimited ports going out. Any thing I need for redirection is allowed.

The MS centric "security" guy was coughing up blood at that point.

New Nice.
But remember what you said a long time ago:

"If you can't be fired, you can't be promoted."

Enjoy your new toys, but don't get stuck in a rut. :-)

Cheers,
Scott.

New Ground zero start
Just like I did 11 years ago.

Design, build, implement, grow.
Hire an admin to take over the systems.
Hire a programmer.
Hire a project manager.
Grow some more.
etc, etc, etc.
