Ok, thanks for the starting point Susan. I did some research and used Wyse
Pocketcloud RDP client to log on to my work PC from the Ipad. It worked
pretty well.

I was wondering what security implications you mentioned might be a problem.
The method I used was to create a VPN to my SBS2008 network, then use the
RDP client through theVPN. Seems like that is not much different than using
any VPN connection, or is there something I'm not thinking about? Thanks in
advance.
