Anyone have a good remote access system for their mining rigs ?

[HDSolar]

My mining rigs run BAMT and so I have used SSH. I just wish I were better with the linux command line. :/ Its been a trail and error learning experience the past month or so.

I think that is the point of this thread.  If you want something simple and will take little effort either logmein or teamviewer for free.  If you want something that is light, custom and could take some time to setup the way you want then there are many command line and windows/linux formats you can use for free too.  It’s like this, if I want butter I can go and see how the land-o-lakes works out or I can take some cream and churn away.  Sure I will know the butter in and out along with any special things like adding some vanilla for a fun taste but at the end of the day I don't care about butter that much I just need some for something I am trying to eat. 
My deal is that when something is wrong with the rig I want something that will get me in fast and fix the problem fast.  I will admit it here first; my name is HDSolar and yes I use an iPhone.  There I said it so burn me at the stake now for not having a droid or some Chinese knockoff phone that I programmed to make a call (or text or whatever people prefer over talking on a cell/smart phone now a day).  Logmein has a free app for the iPhone that works and when I am at work and really need to get something done fast because I need to be working at work, logmein is there with no questions asked.  Teamview is good too but I have my reasons for one over the other as my primary.

Understood. My point was going to be that the OP did not state if it was windows or linux, however re-reading his post he does say he is running windows 7. My bad...

I used Logmein for a long time and just recently switched to teamviewer. both are great easy to use programs if your trying to connect to different machines behind a router from somewhere else. If you and your machines are on the same local network then I would use UltraVNC/WinVNC.

No problem, just having some fun with this thread.  It would be interesting to see a poll of who uses what.  From the posts it looks like logmein is winning for those who are running on a windows based setup.  I think and again I think teamview works in Linix as well but not 100% sure.  I know of people who are diehard Linix users and they use teamview.  FYI

Yes, there is a client for Linux too, although basically is the same Windows version but in a wrapper (a fake Windows environment).
There is a version for iPod/iPhone too.

Anyone used logmein?

Hells yeah!

I vastly prefer LogMeIn over TeamViewer.

If you use iOS logmein is better
Android doesnt yet have a free logmein client (its $30).

Teamviewer is free for both android and iOS.

Teamviewer is more convenient for logging in from a desktop/laptop.


Just my experience...

I use SSN for Linux and teamviewer for Win rigs.

I use teamviewer, Because there are no Problems with multicard  Setups. Theres no Need for Dummy- Plugs.

Teamviewer to windows rig, from there SSH to debian rigs.

I like BladeLogic, but it's $$$$$.  I've heard good things about OpenQRM but haven't used it myself.

BL is very good for abstracting access and storage across a very large number of devices.

7 headless windows rigs
bios set to boot on power
shortcut to cgminer .bat in startup folder
Teamviewer to monitor, update drivers anything
click view > single window > click cgminer window, line them up on a monitor
When away from home access desktop and all rigs from teamviewer on laptop
works nicely for me

ssh and gnu screen. what are these Windows you keep talking about?

shortcut to cgminer .bat in startup folder

Don't you have to log in to an account for that to run?

Setting up Windows to automatically log into a User is pretty trivial.

OK I'll look into it.

OK, here's the answer for anyone else with the same question.

Logmein + Send e-mail notification when down + Failure detection threshold 3 min. And all on any droid or iOS device.
