I'm not sure what it is you're asking - do you just want remote
graphical logins to the machine a la Citrix or Windows Terminal
Services?

You can do that easily - just ssh in to the big server from another
Linux box (using ssh -X) and then fire up your favorite X application.  

Am I understanding what you are asking for?
