VPN Question
Not 100% sure if this is the right group, but here I go.
We currently use pcanywhere to remote connect to other PC's in our offices which are spread out between other locations. I have a spare PC in my office - could I set it up as a VPN server, connect all other PC's to it so they are accesaable to each other in "My Network" without routing all their internet traffic through the server? In a prefect world I would like the PC's accessable by remote desktop connection as well as plain old file sharing.

VPN Question
The answer is yes. If the PC is server, you can setup VPN server so that we
can access any PC in the LAN. -- Bob Lin, Microsoft-MVP, MCSE & CNE Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting on http://www.ChicagoTech.net How to Setup Windows, Network, VPN & Remote Access on http://www.HowToNetworking.com "Gord" wrote in message ...
