Remote Control a Networked Machine

[noodleNT]

Can Girder do this on it's own or do I need NetRemote too?

I already have Girder running on one home theater PC. I have a second smaller one that just runs BTVLink in the bedroom. I would like to use my Harmony 890 to control my computer in the bedroom and possible the living room. I was thinking a great way to do this is to have my current girder system as a "Girder" server that will be the central hub of my HomeTheater\Automation equipment. That way I only have to go to one place to configure everything.

Is the possible?

Yes, this should be at least partly possible using Girder2Girder. You'll need Whole Home Pro, or two Girder licences. In the Actions pane on the left of the Girder window (in Expert mode), you can add a Remote Event Pump action which will forward events from one copy of Girder to another.

Very cool!

I just downloaded 5 beta since I have vista running on the other machine. Already ready to buy it! This is perfect!

Great job.

Note that you can use a Push GML action to transfer a GML to a remote machine
