SolutionYes, rlogin is included with most (if not all) Linux distributions.
The desktop you use is simply a matter of personal preference.
Most character-based applications which work within dtterm should work equally as well using xterm, GNOME terminal, KDE terminal, etc, with TERM=ansi.
I've yet to find a Linux distribution that does not include Netscape 4.x. There are also other browsers available such as Mozilla, Konqueror, Opera, and others.
I can't answer any of your Omniback questions, as I am not very familar with that product.
Hope this help.

Re: linux as a suitable replacement for 735 workstation?
Linux would be more than suitable as a replacement for your 735. However, it will require a lot more involvement to make it work. Depending on the version, Linux comes with everything and the kitchen sink. Gnome, KDE, ipchains (packet filtering), ssh, cdrecored, databases, you name it...
It will require more interaction on your part however to make sure that everything is secure and installed properly.
Just my thoughts.
Enjoy

Re: linux as a suitable replacement for 735 workstation?
You can definitely rlogin to a HP server and DISPLAY X-windows back. Although I'd recommend using SSH instead and the whole X session would be encrypted.
I believe Netscape comes with most Linux distributions, Redhat for sure.
Printing will work as described above, Omniback is available, though not sure about Cell.
KDE or GNOME really doesn't matter, your choice. It doesn't affect any of your other questions.

Actually, you can try linux on your 735! Check out the previous Puffin project:

You can find the documentation at http://support.openview.hp.com -> User Manuals, then choose OmniBack II version 4.0
