To do what? For your familiy members to contact you or....?
gotomypc.com or what OS are you using. win xp has a nice Remote Desktop manager that's there for tech support.
VNC for linux http://www.freeos.com/articles/3292/
or http://www.sharewareconnection.com/a...ol-utility.htm
or just search google....there are tons of free remote desktop programs...
I would like to have a web interface that they can initiate... I guess who initiates the connection is not as important. I am just thinking web based so there is no client for their end. Not sure if that is even possible. I have Linux and XP. I prefer to use Linix, or XP via VMWare.Quote:

I am familiar with VNC. I have not used it in a while. I looked that the other site.. That looks really interesting, and I would love to do it then charge my worthless family and friends for all the support =)
Thanks for the help...

If you have a W2K server or a Win 2003 server, you can use Remote Desktop Web Connection for Windows 2003.

This is the link for Win 2003. The idea is to have a Terminal Server and use this web base application as a Remote Dekstop Software.
windows xp also has a feature called remote assistance which i have use a couple times to help my family... it has a really nice interface IMHO
