Yeah ... I'm happy with 768K for now ... have a lot of experience at where the breaks are in the networking stacks since my company did the parallel port transport layer for Win9x and NT ... slow cables at 60kBytes/sec, fast cables at 500kBytes/sec ... we parallel guys talk bytes, not bits.

Point is, once you get over 50-60 kBytes/sec you can use the redirector pretty well ... don't have to think about moving stuff, just use it in place.

Thus, my partner across town and I share drives via a VPN ... he's got 1.5mbps DSL running to an NT5 server which routes onto the office LAN too. So the server drives look local to me.

All this has been around for awhile ... now it's cheap and accessible ... and Windows 2000 makes it pretty darn easy to admin.

Hey, you can use our parallel cables to share a fast internet connection ... DSL into one box ... bridge to another with a cheap parallel cable. Built right into Windows ... Start->Help->Index->Parallel
