Consider VNC. There are a number of different programs that use this protocol; Real VNC, Open VNC, Ultr@VNC - I've tried them all and they all work well. I actually use Ultr@VNC at work - right now I am looking at a monitor that itself has 4 VNC windows so I can monitor a bunch of production servers. I also walked my father through installing VNC on his computer (in Ont.) so I can support him from home.
Maybe I will explain the circumstances and you can tell me if I require PC Anywhere.

My client is a golf course installing central communications for their irrigation system, factory reps use PC Anywhere to troubleshoot when absolutely needed (so this is why I need PC anywhere) for him however, he wants to access the central if he has an emergency situation from his home computer.
