If you are looking to magnify the server remotely then the only
application that works consistently is SuperNova by Dolphin. MAGic claims
to work, but they leave a shadow of the remote machine if you move between
the server. It may work fine if all you are trying to do is magnify the
remote server. Contact me off list and I will step you through the
process.
