Alright.
I am looking for a program or method to be connected to a network, and do remote access on a computer, connected to the network, but fast and easy connecting.

I'd be on a laptop, MacBook, and connected to the router where the desktops are connected to.



Anything?


Thanks.
 
Connecting to pcs right?

Theres a few tutorials: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=54704
(Didnt read that one, i cant find the one im looking for :( )
http://macs.about.com/cs/tipstutorials/a/xp_osx_sharing.htm

EDIT: I do it ocasionally...
cant remember exactly and dont have mac with me atm

In mac sharing prefs, allow windows file sharing, then at the botom of that window, it tells you what address to connect to.
On pc, type in //thatip/macusername/
Then a box pops up and asks for password...

Or something along those lines. IDK it isnt too hard, you can probably fool around in preferences + help and figure it out.


EDIT #2, did i understand the questio nright?

Sounds right.

I pretty much want remote access, as easy and fast as possible, while connecting via wireless to the router thats connected to a wired network of PC's.

If easier, I can parallel XP or something.

And if possible, I'd like access to the other computers without having to run over the the computers and accepting acceptance.



Thanks.
 
Itd be easier to just stick with mac (not parallel).

Did you do or read the tutorial I posted?
Howd it go?
 
That looks like file transferring, I transferred some files for XP to my Mac.


But what I want to do is an easy form of remote access, meaning, enabling auto join at a click of a button, without having to click accept or a password on the clients computer.

They are going to be connected via wired connection and wireless, I'd like to connect to their computer and help them with any problems, like having it be like I was actually there.



Thanks.
