What you are asking about is remote access, not virtualization. Virtualization is using software within one operating system to enable you to run other operating systems within it as if they were running on bare metal (as closely as possible, that is). It has absolutely nothing to do with being able to manipulate the desktop of one computer from another computer.

Ya . That's what I want to do. Rmote Access. I know teamview can do it. I just was looking for an xfce4 app recommended on this forum.

There is no Xfce application for desktop sharing/remote access. You'll need to use a 3rd-party protocol like VNC or RDP or a package like Teamviewer.
