[X4U] remote access

[Mitchell Senft]

I want to be able to access the work network from home, something I  
know nothing about. The work network is predominantly Windows but the  
file server runs on Linux.

Apparently there are web-based services. Are these services platform- 
agnostic? They say I can access my p.o.b. PC but can I really? I  
mean, can I run the apps on my work PC from the web connection? Or to  
work in word processing documents do I have to do it through a  
compatible app on my Mac? And one of the reasons to access the  
network is to be able to access our case management app; can that may  
be made to work with one of these services? Exactly what can I access  
through the Mac? Particularly for the case management app, must it be  
installed on the Mac -- which of course means a MacIntel w/Windows.  
Or am I really going to have to commit to a dual-booting MacIntel?

Thanks,

Mitchell
