We use it here, too, but I don't know if/how it works with Jon's Mac. All
of our PCs are XP or Win7. I use it to configure our retail stores' System
i stuff. The set-up that we use requires the PC's IP address and a
password. Our PCs' IP addresses are specific; i.e., not the 10.0.0.0
variety that are used by, say, my PC sitting here next to the System i.

I like it because, unlike Windows Terminal Services, the person at the other
end can see what I'm doing and take back control (which, of course, has
caused headaches - Hey, stop that!).

We use VNC for this -- but it does require you to install software.

I know of folks who use GotoMyPc.com -- maybe that'd work? Not sure.

I have been using the Windows Remote Desktop client for a while and
it works well.

Now I have a need to do the same thing BUT - the screen of the
Windows machine needs to be visible to the remote user while I
control it.

I know that I can do this via WebEx type software - but that involves
something being installed on the PC - which the client will not
permit.

Anyone know of any way to do this - or some setting in the remote
Windows machine that I've missed that allows this?
