This is an ability that all people have with Windows XP.  It is part of Windows XP that if you trust someone or they trust you, you can give or receive permission to have control taken or take control of your or their computer.  There are several reasons for this new option.  The main one was for Tech support so that when you call them, if you can't explain some thing well enough or you can't figure out how to do what they are asking of you, you can give them permission to take control of your mouse and do it for you.  Basically what happens is that they get a mini sized version of your screen on theirs and they have complete control of your mouse.  I have used it to help my mother with problems she's had with her computer before because I couldn't visualize the problem easily or it was taking too long for her to read what the screen was telling me.  I highly suggest using this function only with people and/or companies you know and trust fully.  Because as I've said before they will have complete control of your computer and could do some nasty things to it before you realize if they were so inclined.  Also I only suggest using this function if you are on a high speed Internet connection.  It takes a lot of bandwidth and thus can slow both computers down considerably so only use this option as a last resort.  I hope that answers your question well enough.

I am assuming that you are using Windows XP.  First of all, make sure that you have configured your machine to allow remote desktop access.  Right-click on "My Computer", click on the "Remote" tab, then make sure that "Allow users to connect remotely" (in the Remote Desktop section) has been checked.\n\nNext, make sure that if you are using any firewall software or your machine is connected to any type of router that is blocking ports that you open up port 3389, which is the remote desktop port.\n\nIf the machine is given an internal IP address using Network Address Translation (NAT) and your machine isn't the one with the exposed static IP, then make sure you set up port forwarding services on the router to go to the correct IP address of your machine on your internal network (use IPCONFIG on the machine you wish to connect to in order to get this) and forward requests to port 3389 to that machine.

This is pretty simple if u got a client server architecture.\nThere are loads of remoting softwares available at sites like www.downloadbazar.com, www.downloads.com, www.pctools.com. In those softwares there will be mainly three optons as if u want to login\n1. From command prompt as stealth as anything with out the notice of the client.\n2. From the gui in stealth mode. here actually u can even drag and drop with out the clients attentions.\n3. visible mode in which u can do the remote installations.

There is no way to access a computer over the internet if it is not connected. If it is constantly disconnected and no one had/has physical access to it, there should be no problem.

If you're on linux using a bash shell, you could use nmap.\n\nIf you're on windows, download a network scanner and use that.

Well, one way you can fudge it is like this:\n\nroute add -p 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 1.2.3.4\n\nwhere 1.2.3.4 is the ip address of the gateway.  This assumes that there is no gateway already in place.  With this done, you should be able to get remote desktop access from across the network so you can go in and correctly set the default gateway using the appropriate configuration tools.

To specify which users have remote desktop access to a Windows 2003 server...\n\nOn the 2003 machine, right-click on the "My Computer" icon and hit Properties. Click on the "Remote" tab. From there it should be self-explanitory.

Remote Only usaully means that a RAT (remote adminastration Tool) is on your computer. These are simple programs that allow access to your computers controls from another computer.  There also may be a key logger or program that records key strokes to gain passwords.  For a windows PC try hitting ctrl+alt and del to bring up the task manager.  Click to proccess and terminate any programs that you know don't look familair to you.  Also try running a spyware program to get rid of the RAT.\nOne thing I've tried is typing in the URL with the http:// that has worked in the past for me.

Remote Desktop connection helps you to connect to a computer from an other through help of net or modem.For instance u need a file on ur comp. But u are very far away from ur home. In that case remote desktop helps.\nThus when u connect to ur home PC,u hav to log on as an user of that home PC. And thus that different PC act as ur own home PC

Sounds like the routing table needs to be updated. A router connects two networks.\n\nYour system can ping the router and your local resources.\n\nThe remote system can ping the router and access their local resources.\n\nBut the two networks cannot contact each other. The routing table in the router is what facilitates the two networks contacting each other. It tells where other PC's are on other networks. Without this, a PC wouldn't know where other PC's are on other networks and couldn't talk. Which is what's happening.

Login to the router and look for possible "port forwarding".  This will allow you to connect to the public IP address of the computer you want to connect to and the port forwarding will forward any activity through that specific port to the internal IP address you specify.  For example, windows xp has remote desktop that uses port 3389, you would then set the port forwarding to forward all activity coming into your router on port 3389 to go to the internal IP of the computer you want to access.  Clear as mud?
