after I installed freenx on top of it. The downside is it killed the printing for windows and not for ubuntu client. It is way more responsive now than it was before installing freenx. This is on windows xp. Using Ubuntu as the client has no problems except if you open system monitor it bogs down the speed tremendously like it was under heavy load, but there is no cpu usage. In windows it didnt have this problem. So maybe the library from freenx can be used here? The speed difference is definitely big and less lag. All this I am using over internet not local lan. Basically the clients are in China and the server is in Hong Kong and from another location in Hong Kong using USB 3G 3.6Mbps download with 2Mbps upload. Please look into it asap as the windows printing is quite important for us and most of them at this point are not interested in changing to ubuntu yet.
Tks in advance, Eric
