We use a product called Brightwork Remote which allows us dial-up access to the network from a remote PC. This software runs on a dedicated machine on the LAN on which all processing ocurrs. The remote PC simply sends keystrokes and displays screens -- sort of a remote dumb-terminal. Is there any Mac software which would allow me to access the LAN in a similar manner from my home based Mac+? I intend to do some work at home and would like to avoid hauling a MS-DOS laptop around. E-mailed suggestions would be appreciated. +-------------------------------+--------------------------------+ | Mike G Newman | mgn@cup.portal.com | | BX 1510 | MCI: mnewman (333-1196) | | Saipan MP 96950 | Phone: 670-234-7726 | +-------------------------------+--------------------------------+
