For remote control from a desktop I use WinVNC. The best things are 1) It's free 2) You need no client side software. You CAN use a client piece and get a little better performance, but once you install VNC on the machine to be controlled (including Win9x clients), you can simply point your browser to http://computername:5800. It can be installed as a service as well - again even on Win9x boxes. I use WOL.EXE (a freeware app) to wake wake-on-lan PC's and VNC to log in and administer them.
It's available at http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/ Dave Lum PS Of course if you're trying to avoid 3rd party apps this doesn't help. -----Original Message----- From: Michael Staines [mailto:mikes@;alloy.com] Sent: Thursday, November 14, 2002 08:18 AM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: RE: Remote management Sorry, It seems to be consistent with the DHCP snap-in since I re serviced-packed the machine. This happens when I try to "install" the snap-in into MMC. I am trying to remotely administer my win 2000 servers from my win 2000 professional desktop.

On all? When you were installing it? 'Lil help?!
