Remote Desktop
I can now use Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) to view and work on computer B from computer A.<br>
What was irritating though is that computer B always went to the login screen instead of returning to where I'd left it on computer A.<br>
A simple batch file on computer B resolved that problem. 'tscon.exe 0 /dest:console' and it resumed where I'd left it after working on it from computer A. I called my batch file 'logon.bat' and run it when I'm finished with RDC.

This is all over a small home network. Computer B soon to be relocated in a craft room, in a barn with a Cat5e connection to our router.
<br>
Cool, as far as it goes.
<br>
Now I want to work on computer B from computer A and have what I'm doing visible on computer B in realtime. My thinking is that it'd be easier to help my two users by showing them, remotely, what to do. <br>
Spying? :^0 I don't care what they're doing. We're all semi-mature adults here. I would like for them to be able to initiate the session, or not, doesn't matter.

It's not like I'm some big Admin. or something, I just want to do it that way and will be searching for ways to do it.
<br>
I'm open to suggestions and prefer not to use a VPN to do it across the Internet, unless that's the best and cheapest way. I'm unsure, at this minute, if I have a static IP address or not.
<br>
There must be a way to do it across a network. <br>
He'p me, he'p me, brotherman.
Please.
