RDP is so much trickery and voodoo, somethings won’t work on it as a result, but it is FAST. The obvious issue is that RDP servers can only be Microsoft Windows. Although, I think you will find that the output is not “identical” on the client, depending on compression and colour settings.

Some people have had some success with xrdp on Mac, ie running the xrdp server.

Of course, X Window System is implemented on Mac OS X for some time (forever?), and will happily serve X Window apps over the network. The only issue is that the apps need to be X Window apps, and most Mac apps aren’t.

Many, many extensions to VNC. Many variations on the same theme. Timbuktu is yet another. I’m reticent to pay for said product.

Not all of the services like LogMeIn, TeamViewer etc will realise the two computers are on the same LAN, and will route traffic via the internet, adding to the delay.

If you are purely interested in serving video, then VLC might be suitable. I’ve used it to serve video from a Mac over the network. Or you can use Apple’s Quicktime Streaming tools, which is the same idea more or less.

Any reason not to sit in front of the Mac, and access the Windows box via RDC?

I came up with this which is a combination of your first two queries. I export it to a SQL database and create reports from that.

Logparser -i:xml “select CASE [autn:duration] WHEN ‘%ms’ THEN to_real(extract_prefix([autn:duration], 0, ‘ms’)) ELSE mul(to_real(extract_prefix([autn:duration], 0, ‘s’)),1000) end as duration, to_timestamp([autn:time], ‘dd MMM yy hh:mm:ss’) as time, [autn:thread] as thread, [autn:status] as status, [autn:action] as action, [autn:request] as request, [autn:client] as client into dbo.Audit from http://hostname:port/?action=grl&format=xml&tail=10000 where status not like ‘in progress’”

I use a trigger on the sql table that looks for unique time / thread pairs. This way I don’t insert duplicates.
