Check this tutorial for VNC - Sharing desktop remotely using real VNC

I want to access the shared folders on my office machine via VPN, and also to download latest project commits from SVN. accessing the server without VPN will become a security issue that why I want to use VPN.

Thanx a lot charan....!!

I think these links might help you:

1) Setting up a VPN server in Windows XP (I think it can be done in a similar way for Win 2008 too): *www.zdnetasia.com/insight/network/0,39044847,39050037-39000223c-1,00.htm

2) And then connecting to a VPN network is pretty simple: *compnetworking.about.com/od/vpn/ht/newvpnwindowsxp.htm

You can also try TeamViewer for your purpose. *www.teamviewer.com/index.aspx

Hi,
U can do so by going to www.logmein.com. register here and then install the client in the target system then add it to logmein.com. Next when u will login to that site > there is an remote option > click there and U can take remote desktop to that system.
