Re: Remote connections?

John,
What exactly Do you mean if I wanted to use the VPN on someones network?
Would that be like connecting to a different unit in this building, that is
connected to the same network that I am connected to? Simple example I am
sitting at my desk and need something off a unit that is in another office.
My copy of Jaws would not need the added Remote Connection promissions to do
that? I could in theory get into that unit and reach it's files? Can I get
into that unit and run it's programs with my coppy of Jaws on my unit?
The idea is appealing. Not sure how I would structure things but I could
see times it could be handy to be able to get something from one of the
other employees units instead of having to ask that they move it to the
shared drive or getting them to send me something from their unit. Less
clutter.
Thanks
Shannon

I don't think you need the remote desktop add on if you are using a vpn on
someones network. However, you might need it if you want to log on to a
computer on that network remotely.

Hi again all,
I am wondering how the remote connections work with Jaws 18.
I am not talking about the tandem help but actually being at home and
able to do it but I don?t know how it works.
I believe that I have the professional copy of Jaws 18 and I should be

with a Remote Desktop License?
I have had to use such a feature in the past with WE and Windows 7.
I am now running Win 10 and Jaws 18 on my work unit.
Can I pull this off?
If I can?t do it with a VPN connection through the firewall will it work

Thanks for any advice
