You might want to try Live Mesh. In addition to syncing files amongst multiple computers (and the cloud) it has also Remote Desktop feature. You can even connect to a remote PC via a web browser (ActiveX / IE is required).

Why not just use remote assistance? It's built into every windows since XP.

One of my clients I migrated to SBS 2008 and remote assistance works awesome with that.

We use WebEx, VNC, Citrix, Radmin, Unicenter Remote Control, PCAnyWhere (Yep! it's still around

, MS Remote Desktop and MS Terminal Services.
WebEx is the only one that is non intrusive (Nothing to install, no firewall config) , but requires the remote user to initiate the connection. Oh and it's not free.

We used Webex until yesterday in my company (switched to Citrix Gotoassist). Webex does require the remote user to install either an ActiveX or Java-based control.

Also, each one of these solutions requires him to allow the connection, if that's what you mean by "initiate".

Teamviewer is also somethings that's pretty useful. It can be installed to run on startup so you can log on to whenever or you can have them run the .exe and that way they don't have to install it.

It's also free. And you can file transfer between the computers. Worth a look...

Hi Drolfrawd,

Well,Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is a proprietary protocol developed by Microsoft, which concerns providing a user with a graphical interface to another computer. The protocol is an extension of the ITU-T T.128 application sharing protocol.Clients exist for most versions of Microsoft Windows (including Windows Mobile), Linux, Unix, Mac OS X and other modern operating systems. By default the server listens on TCP port 3389.

Thanks

If it's something that is worth buying, I will purchase the software.

I've tried:

Dameware (didn't like it)
VNC (I want to be able to use it without having the end user installing something on their pc)

If you want to make client having no software install ,there is 2 ways ,
one ,use mstsc to control it in Microsoft Windows system
two ,hack it.not joking
