I have a DSL connection at my office and I want to dial up into it so that I can use it when I travel. What exactly do I need to do this? I have a Windows 2000 Professional pc that I could use for this project. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
 
You'll need to set up what's called a VPN. You would have this on both the Office DSL side and on your PC. Both would have to have a connection to the internet. You then use the VPN software to make a private "tunnel" between the two. Allowing access.
However, it would depend on what sotware is allowed (if any) to access the VPN by your administrators.
I suggest reading up on the subject before diving in as things can get a bit confusing. There is a VPN group in Tek-Tips that may help.
