Hmm, sounds like the tech they’re using for ChromeCast. Last I heard (it’s
been several months) that was still a bit buggy, but I haven’t tried it
recently.

The nice thing about the Google rdp is that you can register a pc, table or
phone. You can then losd the app on a tablet or phone and remote to your
registered device. you dont need anyone to 'accept the connection' to remote
in. You do need Chrome running on the PC, but not the tablet or phone.

Kevin asked why the remote session needed. He’s (the supervisor) a very hands
on guy and he like to interact with the drivers and mechanics in the garage. (
he wants to be sure that they *actually do* the requested training ) Good for
live Q & A too …

If you use Google Chrome there is a rdp app that will let you remote into a
computer from an android tablet. It's free.

We have a television display (LCD) mounted up on a wall in out truck drivers
break room that has a networked PC connected to it. At present all it is doing
is auto-logging onto the domain using a generic account and bringing up a
weather web page in kiosk mode. I’m going to show some supervisors how to
access it so that they can have it run powerpoint slide shows, etc …
One of the supervisors asked a question about using it as a large display, ala
a projector, if you will, that he could use to conduct training sessions back
there with the drivers. My initial answer was “yeah we can do that … “ but
then I thought about it for a minute and was like “… oh wait … that won’t
work.” I was just going to have him rdp onto the session but …. as I’m sure
most in here know the local display will go blank when hijacked in such a
manner. ☹
Are there *any* native, and preferably free, windows solutions to get remote
control of a remote machine AND have that machines screen NOT go blank AND not
require any user intervention? ( ie; yeah – let Brian the supervisor connect )
I’ve run the question re: using VNC up to my immediate supervisor (I don’t know
if it is “illegal” to use here in our company or not … ). Hopefully they
won’t have any issues with it – but if they do – you guys have any ideas?
