Nelson, have you tried the free TightVNC from http://www.tightvnc.com ? It has a few performance features that seem to work slightly better than the standard VNC, especially over "slower" links like VPN over a 768Kb DSL. I've been about as happy as I can be with TightVNC for my setup.

I hate to have to plug windows products, but if it were linux or unix, then it would be a different story, seeing as though it matters little where you are physically on a Linux/Unix box (SSH Telnet, or an XWindow Session with the display set to your own IP)... Anyone knows what Big Larry uses to connect to his Database? :) Nelson Flores Project Manager Intec -----Mensaje original----- De: Chris Berry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviado el: Mi�rcoles, 02 de Abril de 2003 19:09 Para: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Asunto: RE: Remote DBA I do both platforms, my recommendation is OpenSSH + VNC, they work great, they're free, and they're available for both platforms.
