OpenSSH support tunneling of arbitrary ports, and has a switch for tunneling X. So, any Linux distribution that has OpenSSH and one or more of X11/VNC/RDP clients can do it. I'm not sure, however, what you'd qualify as "thin client" or "conveniently". Can you give more detail? -- ZZzz |\ _,,,---,,_ Travis S.
