Is it possible to VPN into a Windows network and connect to a Windows XP box
via terminal services under Linux? If it is possible, can someone please
point me to the tools that I would have to download to make this happen?

I am running RedHat 9.

Thanks in advance!

Yes, it is possible. I am sure of that. Not sure of the exact method of
how to get into the network, but once you are there, use rdesktop to connect
to the terminal services.

I believe rdesktop is included with RH 9, if not you can download it here:
