Outbound sure, you can connect to AppleshareIP servers from your workstation in OS 8 and beyond; but for inbound (to share your stuff) via AppleshareIP I thought you had to buy something extra.... but I usually just set up ftp for access outside of the LAN anyway so may have missed something. I should look at that again sometime. But AppleshareIP server is going out of vogue anyway with OS X, right? Most cable providers are blocking incoming port 80 since nimda, so personal web sharing isn't very useful unless you change the default port, which confuses users. Likely to become more common that it's blocked as that's Comcast policy and Comcast is eating everyone. I think some of the DSL providers still leave it open though, but I wouldn't count on it staying open. Brian -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
