I would appreciate any experiences/solutions for working at home and picking up where you left off with your client from work.

We work with Windows NT and client roots are usually something like c:\src. We use Virtual Private Networking (VPN) to connect from home which essentially puts our home machine on the network. However, the work client will not work since c:\src is on a different machine.

If the user can check everything thing in, she can go home, use a different client, sync everything, and be all set as long as she will be able to check everything in before returning to work.

I tried sharing the folder and using one with a root of \\<host>\<folder> which works from both places, but means over the network (dialup line and modem, thus slow) compiles and for some strange reason adding new files does not work.

Thanks,

Ron Olson
