I have only used RADMIN and VNC over my LAN and find RADMIN to work far
better than VNC.  I have not used VNC over a modem but I would bet RADMIN
works far better.  Anyone tested this? Comments?

Accessing your PC via the Internet (RADMIN)
"RADMIN" is a $25 shareware program from Famatech (www.famatech.com) which
may be used to access a remote PC via the Internet. We have not used/tested
this software extensively, but it appears to work satisfactorily. However,
it is somewhat sluggish with modem connections (28K/56K baud).
See www.famatech.com for download/installation instructions.

To establish connection manually
On the "Server" (ECS) PC:

    1.. Connect to your ISP.
    2.. Run REMOTE ADMINISTRATION SERVER (R_SERVER.EXE).
    3.. Run \WINDOWS\WINIPCFG to get the IP address assigned to this ISP
connection (a new address is assigned for every connection).
On the "Client" (remote) PC:
    1.. Run REMOTE ADMINISTRATION VIEWER (RADMIN.EXE).
    2.. Click OK (if unregistered).
    3.. Click CONNECT TO.
    4.. Enter the IP Address (obtained above) at the HOST ADDRESS prompt and
click OK.
    5.. After a delay (while display data is being collected), the Server's
PC screen will be displayed.
    6.. When you are done:
        1.. Disconnect the Server (ECS) PC.
        2.. Close the Viewer window.
        3.. Select the "REMOTE ADMINISTRATOR" window and delete the
connection icon for the IP address (unless you wish to use RADMIN again with
this connection).
To establish connection with ECS/ECS.CFG
Note: Prior to attempting a remote connection, you must first modify the
POSTIE command in R_SERVER0.BAT (on the ECS PC), such that it will email to
an account which is accessible from your remote PC.

On the "Client" (remote) PC:

    1.. Call ECS and enter the macro "50". ECS will then hangup and execute
R_SERVER0.BAT, which will:
        1.. Dial/connect to your ISP.
        2.. Run the REMOTE ADMINISTRATION SERVER (R_SERVER.EXE).
        3.. Determine the IP Address assigned to this ISP connection.
        4.. Create a batch file (RADMIN.BAT) which will connect to this IP
Address.
        5.. Email RADMIN.BAT to the remote PC.
    2.. Connect to your ISP and check your email until you receive the
RADMIN.BAT message from ECS.
    3.. Click "RADMIN.BAT" and "OPEN". This will execute RADMIN.BAT, which
will run the Viewer and connect to the appropriate IP Address.
    4.. After a delay (while display data is being collected), the Server's
(ECS) PC screen will be displayed.
    5.. When you are done:
        1.. Set the "R_SERVER Disconnect" Item to True. This will cause ECS
to execute R_SERVER1.BAT (to terminate R_SERVER and disconnect) and reset
Phone-Interface-C.
        2.. Close the Viewer window
