Can anybody tell me, is there any remote access software which can connect two PCs running on different platforms, One PC has Mac OS and the other is on windows platform. I want to access Mac PC from windows PC. It means Mac PC will work as server and window PC will work as client PC.

Do a google on
"Apple Network" or "Apple Networking"
Back in in the days of Novelle networks, applenet was notorious for being able to connect to almost anything.

Appls Netwotk allows macs to act as servers, but apple dropped out of any real attempt to be a server a while ago. While they can be used, they make poor servers.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

The DOD uses OSX servers for some things.
