Remote access software for windows
« on: March 21, 2005, 08:47:34 PM »
I am looking for a freeware remote access/administration software
to use with WindowsXP and Windows98.  I have seen several listed
on download.com, but not many have user feedback to make an educated
decision. Anyone have any suggestions?  I have little need to access a
machine over the internet, just inside my LAN.

TightVNC sounds good.  I will probably try it.  Anyone have any experiences
with Logmein?

Terminal Services over OpenSSH, nice and responsive while not caning the CPU or leaving open less secure services.
