+1. We have users either remote into a Terminal Server or if they have a desktop in the office, they RDP to it and do all their work from there.

We provide laptops for any employee or long-term consultant that we require to work remotely. For a few users, we even set them up with a desktop at the office, and allow them to VPN into *only* that desktop, from which they can then do any other work that they need. This can mitigate a lot of other issues. ASB (My XeeSM Profile)<http://XeeSM.com/AndrewBaker> Exploiting Technology for Business Advantage...

I have a requirement to allow a lot these users work from home. Currently we have setup a Dial up VPN to our firewall which works fine. However a % of these users do not have laptops and we are reluctant for people to connect in over their home PC's What do other people do to allow remote\home users work from home? What are my options?
