VNC would require that some other computer is attached to the keyboard, mouse and monitor. Is it 25 feet in a straight line? There are floors/walls between, but maybe something that transmits the keyboard and mouse signals will work. If so, then you'd only need to deal with the monitor. That's an interesting plan. Are the computers noisy? Mike
