Is there a program I can install on two machines that will allow me to span the internet like I am at home on my LAN.

I want to be able to remotely access my shared files on my file server; but over the internet.

Any programs come to mind?

I actually used to see TV commercials for something like that. I just can't for the life of me remember the name. Bah...hopefully it'll come to me eventually. I think it was just some sort of simplified FTP that allowed to access stuff on your home PC from anywhere.

actually theres a way without a program. connect the comps togetehr using the et ports. and click on networking folding find the other comp and share your folders that you need. go to the other comp and do the same.

IALuder, does that work when teh computers are communicating over the internet or only over a LAN?

IALuder · 08-16-2006, 04:11 AM

its similar to a lan set up.

So I know how to do that, and it works while both computers are at home. But if I want the music at home to be sent over the internet to my laptop this doesnt' seem possible.
