Someone mentioned Remote Desktop Connection to connect to WIndows systems here a while back.

Well I set it up at work and have been really pleased with it, it was really fast on our 100 mbit network with my 800MHz G4. Made a lot of admin chores easier.

Well, I just installed it on my home system (450mhz G4 upgraded Beige)

WOW...I'm gobsmacked. Over my MODEM it's faster than VNC was over our network from the 800Mhz machine!

8-0

Of course you have to have Win2K or XP server and enable Terminal Services on the remote system, but jeez louise, I can do system administration stuff from home now.
