If you access the computers via an internal IP address (192.168.x.x or 10.0.x.x) then it goes through your router. If they have an external address (somehow, maybe a dyndns) then it will go through your ISP. So probably just through your router. :) Jonathon -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
