I apprecite the quick response and this valuable info. I'm starting with the XP's of my list and working my way up. I was surprised at the non-responsive "Auto-Logon" function. I almost made a grave mistake, going ahead and removing the former remote and although I had researched the auto-logon function (in case of reboots), RU did not auto log in as I anticipated. I had to contact the 2 owner(s) and have them run the host to get back online. More research turned up that the auto logon function has problems. It was suggested through more research that the startup host shortcut needed to be present in the StartUp folder of the Start Menu, regardless if it was auto running in services or not. The suggestion was to make sure services showed the Host auto running and the Run shortcut was in in the Startup folder before more auto and manual reboot tests. It works that way but all it did for me was make me leary about any more undiscovered "nor working" things and trusting the auto logon to work especially with machine hundreds of miles away. I was wondering if this is a quirk with the free program or a glitch in the paid programs as well. My next test is booting into networking safemode and forced reboots when encountering stubborn or non-responsive mahine. Needless to say the former remote has been reinstated on these two just in case. Looks like a few months before I'm convinced to switch.
Again I appreciate the help.
