Remote control of farm

[LuKE]

I'm testing the remote desktop feature in XP on my machines and so far it's working very well. I like it better then VNC because it's a built in windows feature so i don't have to install nething. Does neone have any opnions on this? I'm in the process of installing xp on all my machines just wondering what you guys think.

I would think it would work fine, just keep in mind security/access issues. Is this on a local LAN using something like 192.x.x.x or 10.x.x.x?

Works okay, but I sure don't want to buy 20 copies of XP just for that....

what if i manage to hold on to a copy of XP Pro. Corp. version?! heheee....

hmmm.....might try to use it over my home network.......

I'm running legit copies of XP Pro. We have a unlimited license OEM copies of XP. So that isn't an issue. Yes i'm using this on an internal network with it's own router. Meaning that my machines are serperate from the rest of the network.

JUst install good firewall or use the SMC Barricade with its own built in router hub and everything should be fine!
