Hello -
I just finished installing my family 3pack on all computers after the fun filled beta/RC testing and was going to use an old computer to build a WHS. I have been reading up on it and discovered in all the fine print that I will have to have my computers running Windows 7 Pro to get the fun of remote desktop.
My questions are:
Q:If I upgrade my main computer to Windows 7 Pro will I be able to access the rest of the Win7 Homes remotely - IE being at home and want to go onto the desktop? It really doesn't matter if the kids/wife can remote to me. I want to be able to log in and fix all the other computers.
Q:Does WHS work find with Window 7 Home?
Q:Will I have to upgrade my Laptop to Win7 Pro to access remotely my computers when I am traveling? This would affect which computer I might install Windows 7 Pro on.
Q:What would I have to do to be able to remote into my mother's desktop over the internet from across the city to fix a problem without having to drive there. Would she have to have XP pro installed? or is home XP fine?
I am about to install the WHS trial version and see what happens etc. Any tip or pointers would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
