View Full Version : Securely Access Computer Remotely
Hey, i'm looking for software that will allow me to monitor and access my computer remotely, (ie across the internet, btw i'm running WinXP). Does anyone have any suggestions?
There are quite a few listed in various places (e.g. download.com) but i was wondering if anyone had personal experience or knowledge of a really good one.
Cheers

tightvnc (http://www.tightvnc.com/) is pretty neat and secure if you have a fast connection it will let you view your desktop remotely.
openssh (http://www.openssh.com/) is a very secure command line based way to remotely login to another computer. putty (http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/) is an easy to use client to connect with.
there is also the windows remote feature but i dont really trust M$ stuff that much so have never tried it.
Remote desktop.............built into xp.
cheers for tight vnc, I think that'll be my first attempt. the winxp built in thing is a bit crap
