Hi,
Like many of you I have a pager attached to my person 24/7, and the
buck stops with me when it comes to a Server problem. I normally lug
around a Notebook which I can get online from pretty much anywhere I
happen to be.
I've never looked into PDAs in the past, but know they've come on
leaps and bounds recently. I have seen that I can get both a
(presumably thin) Terminal Services client, and also a SSH client to
run under Windows CE / Pocket PC, and connect onto the 'net via a Cell
Phone at an astounding 28.8k! :) I know typing etc is still pretty
terrible on those things, but I'm after a workable solution, not a
perfect one!
Do any of you currently use anything like this for remote access from
the pub/mall/car/sports stadium? Basically I am looking for a
'pocketable' rather than 'portable' solution which would let me stop /
restart services, and if necessary restart my W2K servers.
Any input appreciated as always.
TIA & Regards,
Rupert
