Hello,

my Goal is to setup a FreeBSD Server that hosts about 5 Images of

Images then i want to make accessible to old Macintosh PowerPC Machines, 
so the Users can access one or two Applications that only run under 
Windows XP. I would like to know from anyone in a similar situation how 
to accomplish this best.


Currently, I pretty much have it setup for myself, so when i open X11 on 
my PowerPC Machine, and type in ssh -X server_address windows_xp , i do 
get an instance of Windows XP on my PowerPC Machine.


The trouble here for now is server and network performance. I would like 
to know if anyone of you has any suggestions for me on how i can make 
the network load as little as possible. I read that freenx is offering 
really good responsiveness, but unfortunately it is marked as broken on 
my System using FreeBSD Version 6.3.


I'm using net/rdesktop for that. It's native to win, easy to setup, easy 
to work.


qemu bla-bla-bla -redir tcp:3389::3389 -nographic

You can use different outside ports for different virtual machines.
