    Hi I have a Microsoft server in the office in the UK and I am in the Middle East running windows xp on my laptop. I have a VPN set up on my laptop to register on to my office network that is working fine and I can download emails from the server.

    What I need to do now is to set a short cut on my laptop that can get me into files on my server such as Sage as again the data is held in a file on the server. I have just forgoton how to do it. I have set up a remote login to the desktop of my computer in the UK office but it is very slow doing it that way.

    So I know that all the passwords and IP address are good.

    Any ideas please?

    Welcome to WindowsBBS :)

    I have moved your thread to the Networking forum where it belongs - I'm sure that one of our Networking experts will be able to advise.
