Remote Access to my Home Computer

www.logmein.com

Or if you can get out unproxied just use vnc

 

That won't work. Logmein target machine has to be a Windows box - the OP's trying to access his Mac.

Remote access Windows to Mac is a biyatch. I'm not sure if there is a solution.

 

I have said it once and i'll say it again. www.logmein.com. It does work on Mac's. I use it from work, through proxies back to 3 mac's in my house. It's not exactly plastered all over their site that it supports OSX but get into the download bit and your home.

A-ha! Man, are they ashamed of the Mac support or what? I could NOT find that page by simply browsing around. Without your linky, it'd stay hidden forever.

It does appear as it goes thru their servers, a la GoToMyPC. Is that correct?

 

If you go to the website on a Mac, it is the automatic download option

 

Why not use VNC? It's free...

 

well so is logmein

 

VNC doesn't go out through most corporate proxies. If not using a proxy for net access it needs something like t5800, t5900, t5801 to be opened through the firewall which doesn't really happen by accident !

SSH Tunneling via t443 has problems using the authentication used by alot of corporate proxies too so that's ruled out.

+logmein rocks ! ...... The next version will hopefully less buggy, i doubt it will be faster but if you knock it into greyscale the speed is pretty good.

 

Yeah looks that way to me too. I don't like that........but.......i'll live with it

Oh ya... you can use VNC, it works perfectly. Mac to PC, PC to Mac... etc. I have not had any situation where VNC would not go out or that outgoing was blocked. Usually corporate firewalls block incoming ports but leave outgoing free... at least I have not encountered any that have blocked so far.

 

How is VNC free? As I see only Enterprise version works on OS X?
