Thanks, I had stumble upon http://www.hackinglinuxexposed.com/articles/20030309.html right after I sent that. All my searches had been for using putty and sshing into a linux server. From what I can gather in the few minutes I've been playing around is I'll need a local and remote forward each linux machine to accept connections from the desktop machines. -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-newbie
