There are several free Windows VNC programs including TightVNC and RealVNC. I run RealVNC on my XP laptop and connect to my home Linux servers via WAN or LAN all the time. I think the problem is going to be with the second requirement of transfering audio across the VNC session. I've tried that with RealVNC and it doesn't work, and I don't think TightVNC will do it either. The other items should work fine with either.
>I'm interested in a software product that will allow me to: >i) Access files and run applications remotely on the 'buntu boxes, without a >considerable reciprocal risk back to the laptop. >ii) Play (creative-commons licensed) MP3's from that linux box on other >computers which are in the house -- I don't need to go remotely. >iii) Use by a package management system on the linux side and is very cheap >on the WinXP side. >iv) Allows use of one password on the WinXP software, no matter how complex, >across multiple boot-sessions of the linux box.
