GPU BOINC crunching does not get along we'll with the built in windows app. Avoid.
Any VNC will do fine. I use ultravnc.
Just by itself.
I have been using logmein free now since it came out and it works fine for me on my Iphone android and computer too.

Windows Remote Desktop just took out one of my best GPU rigs. I won't be able to get to it for another week due to my traveling! Logmein is not an option for me due to firewall restrictions. I suppose if remotely install VNC then I might be able to log in through that and restart BOINC.
I want to get this sorted out a couple of days before the DiRT challenge, because that will take all my gpu rigs.
Wow that's sucks man sorry
I run my machines remotely for 6 to 8 months a year (we go south for the winter) and I use TeamViewer. I've never had a problem with it.
What I do is install BoincTasks on 1 computer (the main one I tie into remotely) and control the other machines from that 1 machine. You can not start/stop BOINC (except on the host) but you can do ALL other BOINC control on the other machines from BoincTasks.
Likewise on TeamViewer. I log into my main computer by phone and can control them all with BoincTasks.
