If the IT support dept can log into the same corp account from their homes and connect to work stations and servers of their choice then that would be fine. Can more than one person use the same LogMeIn account at the same time? Is taht what you meant by corp account. At the moment everybody is using their own individual LogMeIn accounts.

Is that what you wanted to know? Everyone who has to use LogMeIn has a Windows acount which is a member of the same corp domain using a single active directory.

However, if everyone has their own individual LMI account and is doing their own thing then you're kinda hosed...

It should log its use and work station. There is a battle going on at the moment in our organisation between IT Support who want to use LogMeIn from home to access workstations to give support outside office hours, and teh security/firewall department. The Security department have used BlueCoat to block the use of LogMeIn because they see it as a company threat. If the Security department had some central management tool to monitor the use of LogmeIn by its IT professionals then they won't be scared of it anymore. Is there such a tool?

I pay for the LogmeIn ignition and this help us to support 20+ friends and family members. Is amazing: secure, fast, no firewall setup and no IP required for the connection.

I installed the client on her machine and it works like a charm. 1 hour tech sessions are reduced to 10 minutes. I hated doing tech support for my mom… some new issue every week.
