Hi Tracy,

Obviously, I havent tried VPN (Virtual Private Networking right?) yet. I would be very grateful if you give me links or any lead that I can get my hands on regarding it. Do you internet connection?

As in if I print an FRX from a LAN workstation I can directly print it to a printer located in a far away warehouse (they are basically packing instructions)?

Thanks
Dennis

The report is a pick list generated by their inventory system (installed in the office LAN) and needs to be sent to or printed on a printer located on a remotely located warehouse.
