dimdim.org is an open source web meeting tool. more geared for presentations but it does have capabilities to view desktops remotely (i didn't see any control function... yet). I have used it to help customers in the past... allowing me to keep all $125.00/hr that I charge on a remote session:)
Amen. Spending time in a few divisions of IT, I can relate to your artical. Shortly after accepting a full-time spot under bad management I wanted out. I spent most of my day slinging mud and dealing with issues completely unrelated to Information Technology. I aimed at a department job outside the IT realm because of how disturbed I became with the 'sub-culture'. Well... In the end I was let go becuase "I have too much back bone". IT dept.'s are for the birds. Especially if it is for a government entity.
