So in my case I have a computer, running Windows 98, that still has apps that
just won't function or that do not have install disks left to install them to
my new XP Pro machine. I want to leave that older computer running as a fax
server, file server, and print server, as well as being able to access the
older applications from my XP Pro desktop. We are back to RealVNC or PC
Anywhere to do this or is there another solution?
