     Wow!  Thanks, Shane!  I had previously been looking at spending over
$40.00 a month for GoToMyPC.

     I'm working in Chicago right now, so I had my wife install this on one
of my computers at home and my preliminary testing shows that it works just
fine!  I didn't have to open up any additional ports on my home firewall or
on the firewall in Chicago.

     I'll have to do some more testing, but this might be just what I need
to get through some of the nastier firewalls that are installed at some of
my client sites.  Most of these firewalls block the ports that PC-Anywhere
and VNC use, and I can't keep switching the PC-Anywhere ports on my home
computer to match any open ports on my customer's firewalls because I never
know which customer I'm going to be at next. 

     Next I'll have to test whether I can have more than one computer on my
single public DSL IP address at home.

Glad somebody asked this!
