I think in LogmeIn, if you are not on a domain, you can just configure an
"Access Code" and can share the same with the other person who wants access
to your PC/Laptop. No need to share your PC credentials. 

Thanks,

Subject: Third party remote management

Our helpdesk is looking at some third party remote management tools
like Gotomypc and Logmein to remotely manage our road warriors.  What
are some of the best practices for using these services?  My initial
thought is to not allow these services as your network credentials are
being passed through their infrastructure (ie when you log into a
remote users laptop with your network admin creds) with no oversight.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks
