The Remote Adminstrator 2.0 program that I mentioned in a previous email
does just that, Dan. A small server program runs in the background on
each machine and a "viewer" program is booted when one wants access to
another machine on the LAN. One can either just view the remote display
or have complete control.
Really neat way for remote operation. I use it with my Kachina but it
should work just as well with the Pegasus.
