Along those same lines, it would be neato-keen if there was a way - maybe
there already is a way to set-up a VPN that routes IP & IPX over internet
where the remotes have unknown / variable IP addresses.

My application is a situation where office, i'll call main has numerous
remote locations, I'll call remote.  The remotes would dial into any
$20/month ISP & establish a Wide Area network with main.  What would be
real sexy is if remotes could be referred by static IP Networks such as
192.168.10.0/c, 192.168.11.0/c etc

Certainly this solution wouldn't work for serious data access, but it would
work for low volume transactions such as email & occasional look-ups.

Has anyone implemented this?
