    The short answer is: yes

    But there are things that you need to know first. For example:
    • Does your place of business have an System Administrator for the computers there?
    • If so does the SysAdmin or your place of business allow access to internal computers from an external source?
    • Are the computers there behind a firewall? Proxy?

    You can find more information by following this Google: { connect office computer from home }
