Well that's lucky!
I'm not sure how related OpenSSL and OpenSSH are though.....
To be honest don't get frustrated if you can't figure out what to do. I find it very confusing, but I've just about got my head around it.

Cheers for that -- I'm just doing some work-related reading on OpenSSL, so that's all very synchronous! ;)

Hi,
Linux has had this for years. You can use both a shell login (that gives you a "terminal" on the remote machine) or combine it with VNC. VNC will enable you to have a remote graphic desktop.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC
Have a read of those two pages, and have a stab at it. You will have to get your hands a bit dirtier than with LogMeIn, but you'll have a more secure connection with no mysterious third parties involved.
You will definately have to forward some ports on routers and firewalls.
Good luck.

Hi -- I already remotely administrate a PC for my Mum & one for my Dad, and both are Windows machines. So LogMeIn.com is perfect for those. However, I am setting up an Ubuntu machine for my brother that will also require remote administration, and was wondering about the best way to set that up. Unfortunately, LogMeIn.com only works for Mac and Windows. Could anyone offer any advice? Cheers, Doug.
