I do this also, and I have found that I can also specify the hosts
Internet name (e.g. sql.company.com), if NT networking is setup for DNS
name resolution.

I only have a short hop to the server I administer. I don't know how
well this system will work all the way to India (i.e. can you crash
anything with lots of dropped packets??)

Let us know how you make out! Good luck,

Steve Midgley
