1. When you cannot be there... Remote access and sharing.
Published Presentation Topic by Raul Suarez
[ http://kwlug.org/node/667 ]

This presentation is about showing how you can remotely access other
computers to work as if you were in front of the keyboard or let other
people view your desktop or control your computer, even behind
firewalls. All using Free software.
The presentation will be at the end user level, showing the practical
and hands-on side of it. The presentation is not about explaining the
technology, just how to use it.
These are things that I use on daily basis for different purposes, from
providing remote tech support to my father that lives in Mexico to
using
the main home computer when my children are also using it to working
from home using the computer at the office to giving presentations
remotely and hosting virtual meetings.
This presentation is a teaser of many different technologies and
methods that could be full presentations on their own, but with full
instructions on how to use each one of them. The technologies presented
will include the following

SSH (Including reverse SSH)
X over SSH
VNC (Including reverse VNC)
NX No machine
Remote Desktop (Terminal services)
Web conferencing.

I'll do my best to set up a virtual meeting for those of you who cannot
attend this presentation in person. I'll confirm if I can do it closer
to the scheduled date and if so, post the details.
