View Full Version : Do I need SMS?


jwk
December 7th 03, 12:33 AM
First I apologize. Looking at the newsgroups through MS's web site I know
microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely exists; but my ISP doesn't carry it
or it's not available externally.

I'm running XP Pro here in PA. My sister in NYC is also running XP Pro.
The finace in NJ has it also, with 7 users (not all her kids, thankfully).
My
father (the least experienced of all) I donated my copy of Win 2K Pro to.

With each person's permission I'd like to be able take control or at least
help remotely with out having to travel 100 miles one way - except the
girlfriend of course. I know XP has remote abilities; are they enabled
as is? Do I need to go to SMS for remote administration? What about
crossing domain lines?

How can I go about establishing network drives? I know I have to share
out a drive or a portion of it. But when I try to connect even within the
"rcn.com" domain, but across state lines I cannot find the other machine.
What am I missing here?

Thanks in advance!!

remote desktop client to be installed on target computer,
your XP Pro has the active program, you may need to install
it though.

Thanks for spilling the beans and sharing your chaotic family life with the
world. You could have trimmed all that crap down to the following and not
bored anyone ****less:

Did you ever think for a moment that we don't want to see your moronic
replies on these posts? Well if you didn't think about it, now you
know.

If you don't like it you may leave and never return or just deal with
it.

Realize this... not everyone knows the proper ways to posting messages
and I am sure you were no different when you started.

The Shortened Version:-(Took 10 mins to paraphrase and rewrite.)

*I'm running XP Pro and wish to remotely access a few friends and family
member's pc s at different location(s). Is the remote facility enabled as
default in their pc s running both Win 2k and XP pro? Do I need to go to SMS
for remote administration? What about crossing domain lines?
How can I go about establishing network drives? I know I have to share a
drive or a portion of it. But when I try to connect even within the
"rcn.com" domain across state lines I cannot find the remote server. What am
I missing here?

Kadaitcha,
Thanks for not replying to any request I may put out in the future.

I've read your dribble before; my friend I seriously think you need to
get laid. If you're convinced that you are "that" good and the rest of the
world is contemptable; then why waste your time on us humble humans.
Frankly we'd be better off without you.

Thanks, but no thanks. I for one don't want or need your type of help.

These are public groups and I will reply to whatever I see fit in any manner
I see fit. If you do not like people exercsing their freedom of speech,
maybe you should emigrate to North Korea.
