Running The RemoteComputer Server
The RemoteComputer server can be made to start automatically everytime Microsoft Windows loads. Alternatively, you can click the RemoteComputer Server menu in the Start menu manually when you wish to access your computer. When the server is running, you will see the red tray icon in the task bar. Click the right mouse button on this tray icon and a popup menu will appear as follows.

(Note: On Windows2000, if it is set to start automatically you may not see this icon).
Click the left mouse button on the red tray icon, and the RemoteComputer server manager window will popup as follows:

When starting the server, if the password is empty (it is empty by default), then it will prompt you to set a password. After you have done so, then the server can be accessed. If you run the server manually (ie: if it doesn't automatically load with Windows), then the server manager window will popup after it is started. Please see also Server Manager for more information.
Running the Client Click the RemoteComputer Client icon in your Start menu. The main window will appear as follows, and a yellow tray icon will be added to the tray:


The client only needs to run in one instance, since one client can control many servers.

Control Remote Screen
In the main window open the remote explorer node, and select the host you wish to control. Now open the Remote Control node, and double click the left mouse button on the Screen Control node. You may alternatively click the Screen Control button on the toolbar.

Net Phone
In the main window, open the Remote Explorer node, and select the host you wish to control. Now open the Remote Control node, and double click the left mouse button on the Net Phone node. The Net Phone window will display as follows (The remote server will also popup a Ne Phone window as well):

If the status is shown to be recording, then your voice will be send to the remote computer, and the remote voice will be sent to you. The wave data is transmitted using the UDP protocol, so the network should be able to connect to each other.
NOTICE: Client and server side computers should both have record and play wave devices. This is peer-to-peer transmition, so the network should connect without difficulty. The volume of sound may be adjusted as appropriate.
