Remote logon has nothing to do with Cadence. It is an OS feature which can do in every nowaday OS both Unix, Linux and Windows, but, of course, Cadence doesn't run in Windows.
When you set up your own computer or receive a permission to remote logon to other server running Cadence, just invoke the software like you are in front that machine. That's all.
For the second question, if you think your future profession can effort Cadence then you should have its experience since now, otherwise learning Tanner software would be a greater choice since it is far more effortable.

I use a win32 based program called as XWinPro-32...its damn cool...I can login to the Solaris workstations which are running Linux and then run Cadence all from the comfort of my own laptop which is running WinXP...its veryy very useful.
The number one in market share of this field is "Hummingbird Exceed", but, personally, I'm using Starnet X-win32 because it is cheaper, smaller and then quicker. Of course, it has less features than Exceed, but these are features I don't even think of in everyday use.
I can give the settings in my case.
I am quite certain that most will need the same or similar settings. Run XSettings.exe from the Start-> Programs-> X-WinPro x.xx group
1) The "Use XDMCP" tick box must be chosen.
2) click settings below the tick box mentioned above and make sure that "XDMCP mode" is set to "Broadcast"
3) The "Reset XServer at XDMCP Close" must alone remain chosen.
4) Type in the ip of any of the machines that u need to do a remote login into. If you have multiple machines then create a .txt file and type in all the ip
numbers with labels. Then type in the path to this file in the "Broadcast List File" text box. Now you get to see the number of users logged in, in each of the machines and u can choose one among the many machines.
5) in the original XSettings dialog box make sure that the "image format", "radio" control is set to "Auto" and that the X depth (bits per pixel) is set to 8
XDMCP is known to be unsecure and resources hunger, please consider using it in a small area behide the fire wall.
For me, Starnet X-Win32 is very stable and quick. Don't know why you face the problem. About file was changed to be read-only, have you tried to change its permission back by chmod command? I think it would work.
Xwin is very slow over WAN connections, does not allow to resume or suspend sessions (might be interested when perforing topsimulations) or you must buy an Xserver, it's bandwidth consuming ... but hence it's very userfriendly.
