Personally, I think the easiest way is to run tightvnc on the MS machine
and tightvnc viewer on the Linux machine.  (I'm assuming you have X on
the Linux machine.)

For Windows, you can run the server aspect without having to install it,
it can run on top of Windows.  You set a password.


Then, run tightvncviewer on the Linux box, and you can control the
Windows machine as if you were at its keyboard.

If I'm missing an obvious point here, I apologize.  (I wonder if I am,
because no one else has mentioned it.)

Xander: All right, where is he? Where's the creep who turned me 
into a spider-eating man-bitch? 
Buffy: He's gone. 
Xander: Dammit. You know what? I'm sick of this. I'm tired of 
being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As 
of this moment, it's over. I'm through being everybody's 
butt-monkey! 
Buffy: Check. No more butt-monkey.
