xRDP Remote Desktop Server

I have been playing with Windows 7 RDP lately and it has been fun. I was wondering about connecting to my Linux machine from my Windows 7 machine, it can be done! I had a fun time running command line and it was easy! I found a very good website that walks you through the process, it is pretty easy. Check it out.

How to make Ubuntu look like Windows 7

 Here is a great article on how to make Ubuntu look like Windows 7. It is a well done article with all the command line steps to do this. This would be great to help new Linux users feel at home and maybe not have to go to Windows 8. I will try this on one of my machines to see it for my self. If anyone has done this, let me know what you thought. Check it out here: Here_s_how_to_make_Ubuntu_Linux_look_like_Windows_7

LINBPQ

LINBPQ is the latest Linux version of BPQ32. John Wiseman G8BPQ/GM8BPQ, has done it again! This looks to be a good direction to go. I was dreading to change my BPQ node from XP to a newer version of Windows. Now I can just use a linux version and not worry. I have a computer with the latest Ubuntu on it so I will give this a try. I will keep you posted on how it goes.
