> Can you elaborate on your views of VPN?
As to VPN's, they are a way for two or more computers to establish a secure
connection over a public or open network. They allow a company to move its
network out onto the internet and still be secure. If a company has 100
people around the world who do their work at home but still need access to
the company network, they can all log on to the network over the internet
and it acts like a WAN. The whole idea is to simulate the WAN but do it
with internet connections as opposed to having direct lines between the
company and the remote machines. It also allows a company to set up things
like 'Data Warehouses' in places that are removed from the companies main
servers All access is done over the internet. The key is that they are
relatively secure( no network is 100 secure if it can be accessed by the
outside world.) and are easily accessed from afar.
