Escaping from the LAN? Not something I've tried. I'm not clear whether you're trying to connect Mac to Mac (in which case <a href="http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/networking/" rel="nofollow">AFP</a> may be better) or Mac to PC, or what kind of servers you have available. I'm also no networking expert ;-) It would seem it is <a href="http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2170828" rel="nofollow">possible</a> to mount SMB shares over a VPN, but apparently getting it working can be problematic. You may need <a href="http://www.thursby.com/products/admitmac.html" rel="nofollow">extra</a> software. It might be easiest to consult your IT people (if you have them), or employ a networking specialist to sort things out. None of this stuff is as easy as it should be! Hi Michelle.

If I use smb://198....etc it only works in my office, i want to redirect it to send to my house too. But if I try to connect to server it won't let me. so is there a way to redirect smb protocol so that it won't just work locally at my office but also work at home too?
