Is there any way to easily Remotly control PC's behind a NAT'ed connection?

I currently use a product called Dameware which works very well apart from in this senario. It can be setup but requires a lot of fiddling. Are there any products which initiate the connection from the client end?

Thanks
 
We use the Check Point SecuRemote client behind Linksys routers using NAT and we are able to utilize Timbuktu Pro to control their PC.

We have defined a home Subnet range for all our VPN users and assign a static IP to the users home VPN PC. Other PCs on their LAN are assigned DHCP addresses from the Linksys.

The static address allows for the NAT table to maintain the route to the home PC via NAT. Or at least I think that's what helps. Been using for over a year with no major issues.

Hope that helps.
