    Remote desktop view of multiple machines

    Were looking for (preferably free solution) to view multiple machines remotely from one computer. Ive looked at the VNC plugin solution but its very unstable and seems really jumpy.

    Can anyone else recommend any other solutions?

    There are a load of VNC scanning packages that will scan between remote consoles on a pre-detirmined time scale or view multiple clients at the same time. Can't remember what any of them are called off hand but if anybody finds one then it would be nice to know.

    If it's for teaching use, then Netsupport might be of use to you...

    Re: Remote desktop view of multiple machines

    In what way view them? I use Remote Desktops (NOT Remote Desktop Connections) to access my Servers remotely.

    Or do you mean to view the students working?

    Ah right, we always used TightVNC until a teacher wanted the same features so they bought Sanako Study 100 which I do not recommend but put up with myself!

    Sorryyyy

    We have Ultravnc on all laptops and computers in school and use a product called smart code VNC manager to be able to look at multiple pc's at once.
    Been using about 6 months find it stable and it wasn't that expensive.
