hi
i have just studied the page " Running the GUI from a remote terminal " in the emc hand book.
with the help of this page i got the idea that we can run the tkemc from remote terminal.
in that page all the changes are defined very cleary.
my question is how can i connect the two PC's ?
can i connect them with a network adapter card or can i connect them with a serial communication port?
thanking you

I think it is much better to do this now with ethernet rather than a
serial port. Setup a samba server or client on the linux computer and
you can share files between the two computers.
Then just have the CADCAM software save the files in a shared directory
where EMC can
open them from. Neither EMC nor the CADCAM software needs to know the
other one is running on a different computer and you won't have to
install any software on the windows computer.
