Remote Desktop Program

Hi all,

I am currently running a small network, just a couple of computers scattered around the house.
I'm currently using 'tight VNC' as my remote desktop programs and it's ok - but in addition to what it can offer i was looking for this;

It currently has;

File sharing
Remember several ips entered [not really important]
Passworded entry.
simple to set up [no too important]

Able to get the sounds from the client playing through my pc [server side]
A section were they can't see what im doing so i can edit setting without them watching.

Oh and it has to be free.

Any ideas?

It'll have to be Free and include them.

Can i re-direct the sound into my pc from the client with the built in windows ?

I've Never used it.

lol no wondering it wasn't working at first - I was trying to set it up on Windows Home, when only XP+ has it. I now have it set up on my music machine so i can play songs into my PC

Seems ok, and still using tightVNC for file sharing.

I used TightVNC for remote access from my win xp to my win home and file sharing and built in windows remote desktop to get sounds from my music pc.
