Hey guys,

I have a remote Windows 2003 server that I want to 'control' from my Mac at home. It must be secure connection as I need to run some corporate apps on Windows side. How is that could be done?

PS: I have a copy of ARD 3.2 but was unable to find yet if it can be used for the task so any ideas welcome.

Looks like there are articles on the internet explaining that so I will recall my question for now.

You want to use remote desktop for control; download the client from Microsoft.

If you want to secure it with a VPN, you can do that. Both sides should support PPTP or L2TP.
