Hi all,

I'm using two PC with 12 cores each for my CFD simulations, using Fluent and Openfoam. For parallel computations, the computers are interconnected via a switch which makes a lot of noise and makes it impossible to place it near the working space. Both have RedHat 5.7.

The machines can be placed in a remote location, too far for any cable to be connected between the PC and the display/keyboard/mouse. Local LAN connection is available.

Can you guys suggest what is the best way to remotely communicate with the PC's (see the display from my working space, use the mouse and the keyboard...)?

The IT in my company suggests using Remote X-Windows Server or Remote IP KVM. What can you say about these two?

Thank you!
