Re: Printing to printer attached to remote PC

Thanks Vera,

I do have VPN-capable router at the location, but VPN has not been set up on
that particular router (we have two other identical routers that ARE
configured for VPN, but I don't know the "key" - I think I'll need to
re-configure ALL the routers).

We will be upgrading soon to Windows Server 2003 - will that simplify the
issue?

Thanks again, Vera.
