Remote accress from MacOS9 to XServer

[sewen]

Help,

I am trying to figure out the best way to connect a MacOS9.x workstation remotely to an XServer OSX 10.2.6.

1). We have a Citrix server and can sneak Mac files to the desktop that way, but the resource fork apparently gets left behind.
2). We were thinking GoToMyPC, but the Mac file transfer is none existing and the Mac solution seems weak.
3). PCAnywhere for the Mac no longer exists.
4). Remote Access from Apple doesn’t appear to exist for MacOSX (and I’m not sure it ever worked across the Internet. Does anyone know about Remote Desktop? It appears a little to costly for our purposes).
5). VNC doesn’t have file transfer, and the MacOS9 version seems to be flaky.
6). Is Timbuktu from Netopia the best solution??????? Are there other inexpensive solutions?

Thanks,

Scott E.

Hi Joel,

Appleshare would be fine. The remote mac is an older PowerBook with OS9.2.2 and will be at a remote office with a cable modem.. The XServer OSX 10.2.6 is at our main business location with a T1 line. How would I configure the connection?

Thanks.
