We have one server running at a provider (the one that has the site

That's the prob, the ISP we host our server at and does it at a very
nice price only has modem dial-in. no cable or DSL, so it's too slow
to be usefull, I'll need another ISP to get faster connection so I can
access my own server over the internet at a faster speed.

Not viable for what we need to do. We need the GSM to provide regular
dial-up access.

"it is a little more complex than that". I really don't want to go

anyway :-) What we REALLY need is permamnent connection in the
office, but it's not affordable at the time, and since the amount of
traffic isn't very high, this suits us fine for the moment.

Still need to put it online somewhere, where providers ask money for,
server hosting is expensive, we got a special deal at this particular
provider, but can't use him for dialin since he only has regular modem
access.

It's NT4 TSE now, W2K would do also, but it was installed like this
before W2K became available and I see no reason to pay for a W2K
upgrade when it offers nothing we can't already do now.
