Thanks Stephen. That's one of my RG solutions. As you say, it requires a

PC in remote location that no one uses. Trying to keep people from

mucking with an un-attended computer in this company is like fighting

off sex addicts at a hooker's convention.

So Windows doesn't have any way to route packets via TCP-IP protocol to

a printer at a remote location? I find that surprising.
