Vijay,
I think there is some confusion about what it is you are trying to
accomplish. If you tell us more about what you'd really like to be able
to do, we can try to provide you with good options. For instance, are
you interested in seeing two desktops on remote systems, or do you want
to run specific applications on two remote systems and simply interact
with them from your Windows desktop? Am I making any sense, or just
muddying the waters more?
