Hi, Jane,

It's almost analogous to running terminal locally on your Mac, but from any other computer on the internet.

It is very useful for many people, but it can be an extremely dangerous security risk for the unprepared user.

If you think remote logon/ssh may be of use to you, I suggest you read the security reader report on macintouch at:
http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/security/index.html

Actually, I suggest you read macintouch anyway, it's a great source of information.

Best,
Scott

Hi everyone.

What exactly is Remote login? Does it mean what I think it means, maily that I can "log in" to my account on the iMac using my iBook? If I am doing so on my own iBook, can someone else log into antoher account at the same time using another iBook?
