Anyone ever use GoToMyPC.com? - GoFuckYourself.com

Adam-EB · 09-15-2005, 07:42 PM

Trying to get some work done while on the road. Anyone ever use it, or anything like it. Does it work well?

Will I be able to edit files (photos, videos) from my laptop using my host computer?

Andre · 09-15-2005, 07:54 PM

Yes, I use it. Great for e-mail and such. I like it but I wouldn't do photo editing on the host.

SuckOnThis · 09-15-2005, 07:55 PM

yep. It actually works quite well. A little slow but not so bad you can't get anything done. You can do anything from your laptop just as you were on your home computer.

brand0n · 09-15-2005, 07:58 PM

isnt that like 20 bucks a month?

20 bucks a month for pcanywhere is kinda tuff

If you use windows XP and you're on your own laptop you can use a built in windows function to access both PCs.

Its called remote desktop connection. You can find it in:

Start --> Programs --> Accessories --> Communications

You have to setup you rhome computer to accept the connections but its pretty easy. And its free

If you donw use winxp or 2000 though I dont think it'll work.

I am looking at this one, too: mywebexpc.com

Seems to be more secure.

It's okay. Real VNC is better. Specially for mutliple submissions, multi-server data correlation jobs, and multi-IP block-based advertising.

facialfreak · 09-15-2005, 09:52 PM

yep ... ULTRAvnc ROCKS !!!!

I am travelling back and forthe from US to Canada alot, and ULTRAvnc and www.mail2web.com are 2 things you cannot be without!

The only downfall is it does not scroll dual monitors (which I use) as nicely as real vnc does .... but file transfers is so much nicer than having to open up FTP and upload and then download ...

Also VNC is great for P2P advertising management using clusters of remote servers. We have over 60+ servers here at both of our offices and we only use VNC.
