There's also VNC that gives you direct GUI screen/keyboard/mouse integration

"In computing, Virtual Network Computing (VNC) is a graphical desktop

remotely control another computer. It transmits the keyboard and mouse
events from one computer to another, relaying the graphical screen
updates back in the other direction, over a network"

A free program is Team Viewer.
