The challenges involved in remote connection are as mentioned below.
• Heterogeneity
• Openness
• Security
• Scalability
• Failure handling
• Concurrency
• Transparency
Heterogeneity
• Different networks, hardware, operating systems, programming languages, developers.
• We set up protocols to solve these heterogeneities.
• Middleware: a software layer that provides a programming abstraction as well as masking the heterogeneity.
• Mobile code: code that can be sent from one computer to another and run at the destination.
Openness
• The openness of DS is determined primarily by the degree to which new resource-sharing services can be added and be made available for use by a variety of client programs.
• Open systems are characterized by the fact that their key interfaces are published.
• Open DS are based on the provision of a uniform communication mechanism and published interfaces for access to shared resources.
• Open DS can be constrcted from heterogeneous hardware and software.
Security
• Security for information resources has three components:
- Confidentiality: protection against disclosure to unauthorized individuals.
- Integrity: protection against alteration or corruption.
- Availability: protection against interference with the means to access the resources.
• Two new security challenges:
- Denial of service attacks (DoS).
- Security of mobile code.
Scalability
• A system is described as scalable if it remains effective when there is a significant increase in the number of resources and the number of users.
• Challenges:
- Controlling the cost of resources or money.
- Controlling the performance loss.
- Preventing software resources from running out
- Avoiding preformance bottlenecks.
Failure handling
• When faults occur in hardware or software, programs may produce incorrect results or they may stop before they have completed the intended computation.
• Techniques for dealing with failures:
- Detecting failures
- Masking failures
- Tolerating failures
- Recovering form failures
- Redundancy
Concurrency
• There is a possibility that several clients will attempt to access a shared resource at the same time.
• Any object that represents a shared resource in a distributed system must be responsible for ensuring that operates correctly in a concurrent environment.
Transparency
• Transparency is defined as the concealment from the user and the application programmer of the separation of components in a distributed system, so that the system is perceived as a whole rather than as a collection of independent components.
• Eight forms of transparency:
- Access transparency
- Location transparency
- Concurrency transparency
- Replication transparency
- Failure transparency
- Mobility transparency
- Performance transparency
- Scaling transparency
If you have ping to the gateway in doesn't mean that a remote host has connection.

Network Level Authentication (NLA)
Remote Desktop Connection is a technology that allows you to sit at a computer and connect to a remote computer in a different location. You don't need to install it. In this version of Windows, Remote Desktop Connection is installed by default.
VPN is like being connected on a network .. remote connection you actually control the computer.
Remote Access Connection Manager is a Windows service used to control access to the Internet and other remote networks. Remote Access Connection Manager can be started or stopped using the services.msc tool.
Just create a remote user account and change firewall settings to allow remote connection. To create a remote user account: Start->Control Panel->System->Remote->Select Remote Users... Add your account to remote users group. Your account must have a password, by default accounts with no password cannot use remote desktop, even if they have administrative features. for remote connection you also need to know a remote computer ip address or full name.

The ION VCR 2 PC with USB Connection does not come with a remote control.
Remote Desktop Connection is technology where you may sit at one computer, the client computer, and connect to a remote computer, the host computer. You can easily learn about Remote Desktop Connection on the internet at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Remote-Desktop-Connection-frequently-asked-questions I'm sure that would answer most, if not all of your questions about this amazing new technology.
