Well, for my own needs at home, I suppose I can probably set up RDP. I
think it might be possible to even set it as RDP over SSL, but it's
been years since I looked at that. For the others, tho, I would really
need it to be remote control so that the other party can watch what I
am doing. And that they wouldn't need to open ports on a router, etc.

I will look into join.em, thanks.
