Connect to Windows machine with RDP

I found this one very exciting (yeah, I guess I still find Windows somewhat useful).
All you need to do is install a couple programs and you can RDP (remote desktop) to Windows machines just like you do from one Windows box to another using Remote Desktop Connection.

From Fedora run these two commands as root:
yum install rdesktop
yum install tsclient

After the installs finish you will then have "Terminal Server Client" under the Applications>Accessories drop down menu. The application is self explanatory and very easy to use.
