That depends on a whole different bunch of factors:

1) Host/client software for establishing this connection (PC Anywhere or similar software must be installed and running on the server and client)

2) Both computers would need modems installed and configured.

3) Your account on the server of your office network may need to be modified to allow dial in access.

4) You will need to know the phone number of your server.

If you are not an Administrator, check with your Administrator because there may be other difficulties....

Sorry... anyplace where I used "server" I meant to use "host". The two words are synonymous, but the "server" means a whole lot more. The host computer does not have to be running server software.

Just replace the word "server" with the word "host" in all of the above (except # 3).

Q: Is the host on dail up or broadband?

Q: Does the host have a dedicated IP address with 24 Hr connection or occasional use (limited to 2Hrs)?
