Hi Tim,

If you expand the login screen, is there a tick box for 'log on using dial
up networking' ?

Do the remote offices have no other internet connection ? If they had
broadband (and there's more than one machine at a remote office), perhaps a
router to SBS vpn would be worth considering. This isn't my strong suit -
I've never done it - but it's always interested me ;-).
