Kevin,

Perfect... play away. You might want to look into the RWW features. They are
very cool.

Cheers,

Thanks Jeff,
  But I am the Techie (MCSE, with 10 years on LANs alone,
35+ in this business). This is actually on my personal
setup at home, where I play (test) before rolling things
to clients. I was poking around attempting to resolve
another problem, which I did find and solve.

I'm not an Exchange Pro, although I have gotten pretty
good at it.

I can cover most of the rest of the SBS type issue's
without a lot of problems.

Although I may be bother a bunch soon as I am going to be
working on VPN into my LAN, so I can roll it out to my
clients.

As they move to 2003 I want to give them Remote Access,
as well as for me to support them remotely.
Currently only one has even requested RA, and most run
clean without me having to visit very often. Two also
have capable in-house people I can usually walk through
monor issue's over the phone.
The only big issue I've had recently was when their
router disconnected from the ISP and would connect
without a little kick. Although I think it really was
the ISP help desk kicked it from there end, rebuilt the
RIP tables. I couldn't have fixed this remote anyhow.
