I like the suggestion of that last email (about using NT or Linux) but it might be a little easier than he mentioned dialing in... On the server machine give it a static ip address like 10.1.1.1 then set up the dial-up networking server like that windows help tells you to. Then, on the client machine give it a static ip address like 10.1.1.2 and simply connect to the server machine through dial-up networking. I simulated this here at my office and it seems to work fine, I am able to (after connecting) go to Network Neighborhood and see and browse the server machine. Oh yeah, dont forget to enable file and print sharing on the server machine.

I used msvc++ to make it happen and I have even been able to write my own code, add levels, etc. That part didn't even take a month (self taught with help from the ftp site). But does anyone know how to dial into my own computer from another. i have tried to from outside sources but i just can't make it work. Any advice would be appreciated!
