Question Looking for some specific software

Hi, and like always, thanks in advance for reading/any help. I'm looking for programs to allow me to fully access my own computer on my own network, which is monitorless. I do -not- want any hacking software though, i'm sure programs like this exist, just don't know what they're called. Does anyone know any, or perhaps, the best one out there? I'm basically asking for a way for 2 PC's on the same network, to share the same monitor.

-Kevin

On the software end, RealVNC (free) might be your best option...When you use the client, it allows you to see the other computer in full screen mode. There's also PcAnywhere from Symantec that also does the same thing as RealVNC, but has a few extra goodies for a cost. Depending on what version of Windows your using, you could also setup Remote Desktop Sharing (comes with Netmeeting and some versions of Windows).

If the 2 computers are located next to each other you could just use a KVM switch.
