The problem is that there are three of us, and sometimes all three of us need to remotely log in. Also, one of us sits on the other side of the office, so would like to be hooked up remotely to the computer all the time through the LAN.

Does anyone know any program like GoToMyPC/LogMeIn that is free, easy to use, and won't interfere with either of the other two? Or best yet, a program that will allow multiple simultaneous remote connections?

edit: I guess it doesn't have to be free!
VNC can be set up that way, to accept multiple simultaneous remote connections.
