This podcast is a little disjointed as I'm fighting a flu/cold. As all of you know, when we're under the weather concentrating is a little more difficult. Please excuse this. I hope you still get something out of the show. Enjoy!

29:35 - All else fails. There's routers are in the way, and you can't get them configured. There's a web based tool calledhttp://www.gotomypc.com. Essentially, you download and run the program on the PC you want to connect to. That PC then logs onto the Internet and connects to gotomypc. Then using the internet The client PC connects to gotomypc and logs in. Because both computers are initiating the communication on an out going basis, it allows routers to be circumvented. I have not used this process, but have read about it.
