You might also try Reachout 7.0 by Stac. Works like PC Anywhere under Windows 95 or Windows NT, but screen refresh is
incredibly faster than PC Anywhere. DOS based programs as well as Windows based operate just as a desktop. Also ReachOut passport
allows remote control of a computer using a TCP/IP protocol over a Net Browser provided that your servers firewall will let you through.
