I have 4 computers at location A (Office).. The 4 computers are connected to
a DSL router with broadband internet access (IP is dynamic from ISP). The
workstations receive dynamic IP from the router. The computers all have
printer and fire sharing enabled.



At home. (LocationB) I have 2 computers. all connected to a broadband DSL
router (with dynamic IP from ISP). The two computers obtain dynamic from a
router. All computers Run XP Professional.



What I would like to be able to do is to be able to access resources
(File/folders etc) in computers A (Office) from ComputersB (Home) using my
broadband internet connection. I would appreciate any help.



Thank you in advance for your help

I know about Remote desktop. If I am connecting to a remote computer via
Remote desktop while someone is using the remote computer wouldn't there be
some kind of conflict. I wish to be able to connect to the computer even if
it is being used by someone and be able to access shared folders and files.

Personally I use PCAnywhere, yet there "may" be hope if you would like to use RDC:
