Is there a program that will allow me to log on to a remote server(work) which 
runs windows NT.

Thanks

Isn't there a Citrix Winframe client for the Mac? of course that means
you'd need to give Citrix lots of money for all the server/client stuff.

Presumably if you have a telnet server installed on an NT box, you could
use any telnet client(?) NiftyTelnet is small, fast and quite
configureable. Although BetterTelnet is shortly to have ssh support.

The nicest solution is to get your employer to install MacLAN on the NT
machine, which gives it full AppleTalk file and printer sharing.

If it's an NT server, you can install 'Services for Macintosh' which
gives it full support for Mac clients, and comes as part of NT server.
However, neither of these AFAIK support remote access which sounds like
what the guy wants. I know NT 5 will, but that's retreating into the 
future faster than time is passing. It might well be worth asking on 
comp.sys.mac.comm, where all the networking and comms guys are.
