Hallo out there!

I want to connect two computers with Win XP HOME-edition, so that I can
watch things happen while the other person tries following my instructions.
The problem is that the send RAInvitation.msrcincident has a wrong IP
address included. I guess that this is due to the inviting computer is
behin a router (Fritz!Box).
The given IP is a 169.254.x.y
If I change it to be the address of the router I can connect. Is it
possible to make the inviting computer take the korrekt address by itself?

See this FAQ, the last item titled "Does Remote Assistance work behind
NAT devices?"...

technical.mspx

You might look at TeamViewer as an alternative. I use it occassionally to
support a sister-in-law with good results.

Great - This tool does make it a lot easier to get remote
access. It seems to be a secure way, too.

Thanks a lot
