Xwindows proggy to run windows remote session


I am looking for a tool that I can utilise to created a GUI type session from a Xwindows environment. Essentially a Linux version of Microsoft Terminal Services but running on Linux and accessing Windows 2k Servers.

Depending on the services that are running on the 2k box you could use any of:
rdesktop
citrix
vnc

Well VNC is free:

And rdesktop is free but you need to be running RPD on the server:
