• remote terminal--does your school have one? We have old server given to us at the first TTLNA as a secondary server and use it as our remote terminal. We have frontpage installed on ours and users can log in and work on their web site without the software on their own machine. They are fabulous to use! Works great from home, or if you are a MAC user and want to use Frontpage.
  Go to Start/All Programs/Accessories/Communications/Remote Desktop Log in with your regular school account.
