Remote Access from Mac to Windows?

[Dansta]

is this possible?

Ive already got the remote access address for work, but can i do it from my mac at home as well as my laptop?

Yes,

there is an official Mac Remote Desktop client made by microsoft. It will connect to an XP machine, win2k or Win2k3.

Suprised it works so well tbh, but I really like it, considering using Terminal Services with a bunch of macs.

Might not be Terminal Services tho?

Could be VPN access, in which case it could be PPTP on the Windows side.. so you'd need a PPTP client.

There are many ways depending on the setup there.

worked perfectly.

Anyone know if it works the other way? i.e i cn acces my mac at home from work?

You would need something like VNC, I think there are both Mac and PC clients.

yep vnc works fine altho i believe u can do it without using vnc server on the mac as mac remote access thats built in will work with a vnc client on the pc
