Duhhh, should have looked for myself! Thank You! From the link it turns out that this "Remote desktop" tool already has VNC in it. It seems like a perfect match for what I meant. I guess I will try to play around with this tool to understand, how exactly it works and how can I screw things up. Pics in that link tell that it should be piece of cake. 2011/7/20 Jon Elson <el...@pico-systems.com>: > > You can SSH into the machine.

Thanks for the advice, but my IT skills are insufficient to understand, what exactly You mean :) > You might arrange that the > net cable be unplugged for security when you don't need access. Yes, that machine is not intended to have internet connection during normal operation, but only when there are some problems. 2011/7/20 andy pugh <bodge...@gmail.com>: > > It might also be worth looking at Logmein.com.

Thank You, I will take a look. I don't think that I really need to track the IP addresses as I am not going to make connections on my own. I would rather spend some more time, when building and setting the machine up just to avoid necessity to fix something later. BTW their first page mentions only windows and macs, but I hope that they are not that evil.
