Umm, I think Microsoft makes it.

Hi,

Yes, there are RDC clients for the Mac, but I don't remember where.

Thanks for listening,

Hi Larry
It depends on what remote solution you're going to be using. OS X's screen sharing uses standard VNC, so if you're doing that you'll be fine. You'd need to set up audio redirection--something along the lines of what Soundfly can do on the Mac--as VNC does not have this by default. If on the other hand you're using remote desktop you might need to install windows unless there are Mac clients. I don't know if there are. Saying that you'll be logging directly in remotely can mean a couple of different things--either microsoft remote desktop, or one of the VNC implementations. It can also mean terminal server, but you've already said you're not using that.

Hi,

I'm going to be working with our IT folks at work to get remote access set up so that I can access my work PC from home. The work PC is Windows XP and obviously I have a Mac at home, actually a Macbook Pro. In any case, I have some questions about this.

The main question I have relates to whether or not I need to install Windows on my Mac. I'd rather not even have Windows on the Mac at all. I switched for a reason and don't want to mess with Windows when I don't need to.

I won't be using Terminal server or Citrix for this. Rather, I'd be logging in remotely directly to my work station and running everything that way including JAWS and all applications. So, none of the Windows aps need to be installed on my end.

So, is there a way to run this kind of thing on the Mac or will I need to cave in and install Windows to accomplish this?
