| What
is Remote Desktop ?
Remote
desktop allows user
to use a computer to
remotely control another
computer over network,
such as Internet.
How does
it work ?
As compared
to VPN which extends
office network, remote
desktop technology extends
the reach of your office
PC to wherever you are
over the Internet. What
you type on your home
PC will be redirected
to the remote office
PC, and the screen of
the office PC will be
sent back to you. That
allows you remotely
use your office PC as
if you are sitting in
front of it in the office.
