Remote Computer Access i need to know how to do this

[Yipster 0]

Can I smell something devious and malicious here? Programs, hmm...well the company the supports our Networking program uses this remote program to troubleshoot and fix problems on networks there upkeeping. So they can do it all from their office downtown. I don't really see the point other than this ^.

The program allows you to use your mouse and keyboard to control the other PC remotely, like if you were in front of that computor, wich can be very, very usefull for network admins of a small or big network of computers.

I use remote connection by microsoft in winXP. For this method on "remote PC" must be enabled such feature like "Allow remote connections" in system parameters. And U must run "Start->Progs->Accessories->Net->Remote Connection Wizard", type IP or name of remote PC and click OK!And ofcourse, always search Yahoo!, Gooogle, and other search engines...

These are the common remote computing software. There are many others where you can find them on search engines. However they may lack of support and documentations that you can seek help to.

I have seen RealVNC before, and I can say that it's quite slim. If you want decent web based remote control, try LogMeIn (https://secure.logmein.com/home). Getting Windows desktop sharing to work is a pain, so if you go with that or any VNC variation, sign up for DynDNS or No-IP so that you don't have to memorize your IP address, which changes frequently anyway (unless you have a dedicated static IP on like a T1 or something).
