Thanks, Brian,
I have done some research and will report in a few
days.
Questions: can an ISP allow for two simultaneous
connections using the same user ID and password? I can
'split' the usage between dial-up and ADSL, if nec. or
possible.
Still not sure what I can do about finding the IP # of
the server. Maybe the freewares Mac2Mac or MacVNC, or
perhaps ShareWay IP which I did install today on the
3400 using OS 8.6 have a solution.
But the really interesting point being - if the remote
mac (server) has to connect on its own, how?
