Install it on the 3 computers and run it : - as a server at home, to get connection from the the client and console - as the client at work, to open and keep the the connection open with home - as a console on your laptop at the hotel to activate a tunnel and connect through SSH or directly on port "3389" to another computer inside the company. http://blog.magiksys.net/software/tcp-proxy-reflector Have fun > > Regards, > > Leland C.
