[TriLUG] Remote Desktop

[C TC via TriLUG]

I used Team Viewer for this (practically) exact setup. We had an old Win
Exchange server in
San Jose and used Team Viewer from east coast for 2 years. Only con I had
was if there
was a reboot/power down, the San Jose admin had to send new PW/code. Other
than
that, it worked well enough.
