Thanks guys, with the link above to the pptpclient, I was able to follow
the step by step instructions and connect to the VPN and then use
rdesktop to connect directly to my desktop machine at work. The only
glitch I ran into was the need to use the IP address instead of the
machine name like I use when using the XP remote desktop client.

Now I have no reason to run the Windhosed OS on any of my machines at
home! THANK YOU!!!
