Over a lan, take you pick.

I do something similar in a pure linux environment when I ssh to a
rivendell box with xforwarding enabled.

ssh -X rd@someaddress

On a slower network, I find vnc to be "faster"... For a simple rdadmin
check / change, for a quick peek at a log in rdlogedit, it works.

I would guess on a slower network you might find similar results.

all the best,
