Hello,
I have a home LAN as well with the internet gate being on a Win 98SE ,
800Mhz 256 ram, with 2 NICS, one for cable internet access and the other
for my internal net connection. I have 3 desktops and 2 laptops running
off of this setup, I have used TridiaVNC to access my files at home, not
particularly fast but it does the job quite nicely. I have also used
this product on dual P 400 CPU, 1 gig ram , NT 4.0 server running sp6,
again with no major problems.
FYI
