Windows Forum / Windows 98 / Networking / May 2006Controling a computer remotely
I have a basic LAN set up (crossover cable) and I am wondering if I can remotely control the other computer. By that I mean if I run a executable on the remote machine I assume it would actuallly run on the local machine (not sure of this though as so far I have only copied files). For example could I burn CD's on the remote machine. I am a bit of a novice at networking :O) You're gonna need long arms... how are the cds going to go in the tray unless someone is there to plop them in... ;-) John > I have a basic LAN set up (crossover cable) and I am > wondering if I can remotely control the other computer.

It is basically a terminal services software set. Mr. Critter > I have a basic LAN set up (crossover cable) and I am > wondering if I can remotely control the other computer.
