I think we experimented with something like that years
back. What we had
was called Timbucktu (spelling?)
I probably should have mentioned in my original post that I am attempting
to replace Timbuktu.
Timbuktu does a fine job, EXCEPT that I find there to be enough of a lag
that it gets on my nerves when I use it thru the day.
The software I'm looking for was the software equivelent of a KVM switch,
without the V. There was no lag, because all that was being done was
sending the keyboard and mouse commands to the remote machine. You still
viewed the remote machine on its own monitor.

That doesn't mean there's no lag (you say "because"). Try it over a
satellite link, or a slow dialup, sometime.
You still viewed the remote machine on its own
monitor.
Of course, this does mean that the two machines in question are almost
certain to be connected by a low-latency high-enough-bandwidth link....
