XP Home and Remote Desktop

[Paul Woodsford]

I have a 2 PC LAN, both using XP Home SP1.
I use RealVNC to access and control/adjust the client PC.
I presume the XP Remote Desktop is only available in XP Pro?
Does anyone of any way to speed up the VNC connection.
The LAN uses a Netgear 100Mbps dual speed hub.

You might try the http://www.tightvnc.com distribution. Also, configuring the server to *NOT*
transmit desktop wallpaper may speed things up a bit...

Thanks for the info, a significant improvement on RealVNC.
