    Desktop Monitoring Software

    I'm confused. He wants to monitor around 6 machines, if I open ports on the firewall I'd have to specify which machine I want the forwarded ports to go to?

    Desktop Monitoring Software

    Those are both good suggestions but having to open up all the ports in our firewall to allow him to remotely view these machines is a little rough. I was hoping for something a little simplier.
