Hi,

I new and know nothing about networking. What I'm trying to do is to
be able to logon to the school network when I'm outside of the
network. I'm not allowed to install any program on the school
machine. We're using windows 2000 at school, I know it's possible,
can anyone please point me to where I should look at? Are there any
programming language will allow me to that (I've heard perl can do
that, but I'm not sure)? I'm familiar with C, C++, soem Tcl/Tk. Or am
I talking about crazy heavy programming?

Thanks in advance for any help!!!

You have at least two options:

- Use a remote takeover program such as WinVNC
- Create a Virtual Private Network (VPN)

Both involve the installation of software at your
school PC, plus the alteration of some settings
on the school firewall. This will obviously require
the approval and cooperation of your network
administrator.
