Hello to all,

I am looking for the best product to enable remote connectivty / remote control of PC's from network to network through the internet. I am specifically looking for a product that will be secure, yet not to complex in the setup etc. Being that this is in the infancy stage, please forward any product that would fit this description, weather it be a hardware or a software solution. Price does not matter right now, if it costs $10 - $20,000 or free (Over $40,000 - toooo much). I need to research any and all potential products.

Thanks for your help.

Toby

Does it need to do more than remote control, like asset management or software delivery?

If all you need is remote control, use Windows RDP. This would work unless there are multiple PCs behind a single internet connection, although you could work out port forwarding to different PCs based on expternal port. Like 51.62.41.74:8801 get forwarded to 192.168.0.1:3389 and 51.62.41.74:8802 gets forwarded to 192.168.0.2. I admit this would be complicated and require copius documentation, but it is free. If there is a common network between you provided by a VPN tunnel it would be the easiest.

www.logmein.com offers a cool app to connect to remote PCs behing firewalls and such. Check out their site for more details.
