    Hi guys,

    I need to be able to log in to my work computer from home & therefore need an open source remote access / remote control script.

    Can anyone recommend a good one?

    Primarily I need to access my email & programs and also print out documents at the remote location.

    Thanks for your help

    A few months ago I was using the excellent UltraVNC (open source) on a Hamachi (free) connection. It worked well. I still use UltraVNC in my home - mainly from my laptop when I want something done of one of my desktop PCs, but am too lazy to walk to the next room.

    There's also LogMeIn - made by the people that took over Hamachi. There's a free version, but it's not open source.
