Hamachi : Stay Connected - a VPN solution.
I’ve been using a service for sometime now called “LogMeIn” as a way of remotely controlling the computers I have access to. In my opinion, the developers of LogMeIn have designed the premier way of remotely accessing any computers you have connected (via a broadband connection mind you) to the internet. The best thing? It’s free! If you haven’t heard of them I suggest you take a quick browse over and check it out. To quickly summarize what LogMeIn is:
You sign up for a free account and download the software to the computer you want to be able to remotely control. (you can do this for any computer you want to be able to access)- After setting up the software (painless) that computer is now accessible via the LogMeIn interface via any browser on any computer (err…by any I mean IE or Firefox - the only two browsers I’ve used with it ;)).
