Re: Remote Connection.

["David Cole" <dave@xxxxxxx>]

I use dyndns in conjuction with BulletProof ftp.

One other program you need is something like 3DWatch http://eurocomp.
info/3D/index.htm which is one of the programs that automatically
updates the dyndns server of your current IP address.

If this is what you want to do, access your files from other
locations. Then you can download bulletproof ftp via Bittorrent from
http:\\www.suprnova.org. Just go to the apps section.

Hope this helps
