Ok, I use SMD and Chicken of the VNC. It's easy...unless you are going through routers at either end, in which case, it can be hell setting it up. Also, and I am pretty sure about this, you will both need broadband connections. If I am wrong on this point, someone else please jump in and say so. So, before we get into a lot of detailed, step-by-step stuff: 1. Do you both have broadband access? 2. Is either of you running a router? I can help you IF neither of you is running a router. If you are, figuring out how to make SMD/VNC work over a router is beyond my abilities and I won't be able to help. Let me know, bob -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
