>>I guess the other thread I started was too involved ( message #

>Are you talking about port forwarding? From my limited understanding, what you need to do is configure a port on the router of the destination network to point to a specific IP address on the network. Then you would access that machine using the following ip address syntax: 999.999.999.999:1111 with the 1's being the port #.
Ahhhh... That makes sense. Ok, let me run with that for a bit. Damn, now I'm going to have to create a field to hold the IP address.
