right-click "My Computer" and choose properties, click on the "Remote" tab, 
under the section "Remote Desktop" click on the option to allow users to 
connect to this computer.  By default it will allow the current user logged 
on to be the only user to login remotely, but you can add more users.  Then 
on the linux machine on the command line just type "rdesktop <IP Address>".
