Re: Next step for RDP...

Thanks again for your time - I'll give it a whirl from down the road before
I go to timbuktu - presumably that means I can use any computer, not just my
laptop, as long as it's got Remote Desktop.

That's really useful - especially the first part - slightly confused
where I put the No-IP.com software - on the laptop I presume?

Sorry - brain hurts or maybe turns to Putty when I get to copssh's - but
I'm trying!





No, the small No-IP.com client program runs on one of your home XP PCs as
a service. The way it works is the program contacts the No-IP.com servers
on a time scheduled basis (which is configurable). The servers then know
what your current public IP is and map that to the Fully Qualified Domain
Name (FQDN) that you selected when you sign up for the service. You then
call home using the FQDN...
