Title: Please help my poor memory
Post by: Amigadude on September 21, 2003, 03:07:13 AM

I remember using a program that allowed control of the Amiga keyboard & mouse across a network from a windows machine, basically vnc without the display stuff...

CAN anyone remember the name of this program I know it's on Aminet somewhere but under a wierd name with a naff short description I presume (well if it was any good I'd be able to find it)

New idea: Telnet

I seem to recall there being a way to Telnet into an Amiga and control the system via Shell.

It might not be exactly what you're looking for, but it could have a similar result.

Fun little program. Just make sure you don't disconnect your TCP stack while using it! :-)

Why not use VNC then? Or don't you want the display and stuff? With AmiVNC (http://www.aminet.net/comm/tcp/AmiVNC.lha) you get the whole screen etc.  It is a bit slow even on 060 but it works  :-)

Well, they can behave somewhat strangely at times! MSCE Training does seem to help, though! :-)

Gettin' nakid can cause upsets, so pRon-kitty is RIGHT out . .. . Keep that Siamese at the keyboard & mouse! :-)
