I use Xvfb to make a virtual screen on the number cruncher (comes with xorg). I don't need to see the display, it just has to be there for wine. If something goes wrong (error box pops up) and there is no progress I take a screen dump of the vortual screen to see it. This eliminates traffic on the network too.
