Hi All

I have a SMC ADSL router connected to my home server network. I use
DYNDNS to sort out the dns issues and to allow connections to my mail
server. I normally use a VPN connection from the office to connect to
my network and the access my mail. Is there a way to connect straight
to my servers from the office and not via the vpn. I can telnet my mail
server, and ping as far as the DYNDNS address but thats it. I would be
nice to connect straight at times and not via VPN,

Any suggestions would be great

VPN is the way to do so. If you want to check the email only and have Exchange server, you can do OWA. Or just use TS.
