No.  If you run sshd on the Linux box, you can use something like "putty" on
Windows, log into the Linux box and run whatever you want.

Putty can be found by searching google..or go to
 http://www.openssh.com/windows.html

very reliable remote terminal. a good way to find out where things
are in Linux (because the x graphical screen is very nice on FC4
and hides the details of editing setup files etc)
so you get to try editing using 'vi' to read logs and such.
(i still like 'edlin' better)
