sorry for being a bit vague,
what I have is a NT server based network at work, with XP pro workstations.
We are connected to the internet via Broadband and a router and we have a
static Ip address.
What I am trying to do is connect a XP machine to the network from home. I
have read most of the help files, but cannot seem to get connected.
