Hi gang
I'm a bit of a novice on VPN. I connect to a VPN and then run remote
connection so I become that machine. However I need to look at data on that
machine with FoxPro and alter it. Is this possible? In other words I was to
connect to a directory on the VPN'd machine to use that directory as if it
was on my own.
Al

Hi Al,
Just share the folder on the remote machine and map a drive letter
from your machine to the share.
Easiest from the command prompt:
net use z: \\192.168.1.99\sharedfolder
Use an IP address as in my experience computer names do not always
resolve over a VPN.
It might be a little slow!

Should speed become an issue, you could temporarily copy VFP9.EXE and
VFP9ENU.DLL onto the remote machine. That's sufficient to run VFP 9 in most
cases if you don't mind lacking any of the developer tools, IntelliSense,
and so forth. Copying VFP to the remote machine is perfectly in line with
the EULA if you remove the files afterwards, as VFP is licensed per
developer not per machine.

Hi Paul
I have this client with a server that I connect to through RDT
The RDT IP is (just example) 190.1.1.1
If I try to do what you suggest I can't connect
What I did is share the c: drive on the server and a folder (vfp)
net use z: \\190.1.1.1\general\vfp is what I do, but get the message
that the net name specified is not found.
If I leave a space between the z: and the \\ the command freezes. If I
remove the space, I get the above message.
I I try to do it from the Windows explorer (connect to network drive)
after a long while it asks for the credentials, but even then, no luck
What am I doing wrong?

And Ed Leafe has a RunFox application in the downloads section that
can effectively give you a command window in its own VFP executable.
We have that on several of our client's machines as a simple UI to
BROWSE, REPLACE, PACK, INDEX and so forth...

Hi Ted
That was not my question, I guess you replied twice to the same question

Don't forget Ed Leafe's vRunFox in the Profox archives!
