Hi,

I wonder is there any software like VNC that can view my desktop remotely through wifi which is faster than it?
Sometimes i was lazy to walk down to change a bit of thing at desktop and then walk back to my room and continue with my laptop.

Remote Desktop (if you are using Windows).

What OS platform you're using? If windows U can use Remote Desktop, If Unix/Linux you can use Xwin or Xmanager.

I am using Windows XP as client and Windows Vista as host. I do not like Remote Desktop because it asks me to logoff the current user before I can use it. Or can I change the settings to allow multiple users?

Windows XP or Vista for Home Users only allows one remote logon at a time (same userid). If you required more remote desktop connection, U need to have server OS like Win2003 Server or maybe Vista Business.. (correct me about Vista, if I'm wrong)

Maybe you can try logon using different user (probably you need to create multiple user in your host)

I used either Ultra VNC or Dameware to remote control other users PC

The best thing about Dameware is that you don't have to install the software in another users PC..it will automatically install the software when u keyed in the users IP Add / PC Name..

but it's not a freeware

The "one remote logon at a time" is for the client or the host? Because my host is using Vista Business.

I tried UltraVNC and the screen response is slow if I am at my room.

Since you favour VNC still, try lowering down the display setting (like disabling wallpaper), that may help improve the performance a little bit (not very much though)

Ultra VNC or Real VNC

PCanywhere Good Ma.. But License...

Ya, Dissable The Wallpaper Display

OK, i will try that. Thanks

Good Luck For You..

Hope It Can Solve Your Problem..

How about Tight VNC ?

VNC variant = can access the screen user is using, without logoff (XP)

I'm using RD with Vista Business (host) and XP Pro (client). Had to do a bit of modification to get it to accept multiple Terminal Server connections, but now I can log onto the other rig without affecting the person at the console. I can't keep the same account logged on at both console and remote though. Been working for me for quite a long time very effectively.

Go google termserv.dll vista for the multiple RD hack
