Re: Internet Printing



Does your short reply mean that VPN is the only secure way to do this?

Thanks in advance for your help. Even if you just clue me in on what new
group I shoul be posting to.

I'm useing DDNS from DynDNS.org to give me access via my Linksys router
to
my Home computer network. Currently in the router I have requests for
Port
80 routed to my host where I have Win2000, Personal IS running and all
is
well I can bring
up web pages I create from the internet.

I would like to do something similiar to enable me to print to my home
laser
printer from the internet when I'm on the road. I would think there is
a
port for similiar routing requests or ? Can you help me understand what
I
may do to enable this feature?

What kind of security risks am I taking by doing this?

Thanks Again
John Fors



This is usually done by establishing a Virtual Private Network
(VPN). I understand VPNs are very secure.
