hi,
was looking for some docs about my requirement :
have 3 workstations : 2 mdk 8.2 and one rh7.1; now - on one of the mdk-boxes 
I have progs like Lyx, gimp and much more. 
now - one user is working on mdk nr.1 with lyx on "his document" on the other 
box another user is working also with lyx on "her own document".

here the question :
for save HD-capacity I have installed lyx on mdk1 - now if a 2nd user has to 
work also with lyx, it should be possible, that the user loggs in with his 
(her) username on the client-machine (the 2nd mdk-box) and can call also lyx 
and do her work on her workplace - even the 2nd mdk-box.

right now I have solved this requirement with logging in via ssh 
user@remotehost, but this is not the behavior I have imagined by myself. 
because their are some disadvantages. for example :
after a ssh-login, the user does NOT have the icons available in kde or gnome 
to call his or her prog. he or she have to call the prog within the xterm or 
console with the correct name. and the konsole now is in the background.
What I wanna do (should) do, is the user can call his prog via an icon, though 
the prog is on the remote.machine - except that the prog like lyx or gimp or 
whatever is available on the remote "client-machine".
The user only works on the 2nd workplace, but have all the needed progs 
available from the "server". I am using the word server within 
quotationmarks, because the server is only a PC with bigger HD-capacitys, and 
the user is working on it with his progs - like I and writing just now this 
email.

This configuration should be able to be extended piece for piece.
does anyone have an idea, how I can accomplish this destination ?

thanks for helpings and glues
bye hans
