At home I currently have 3 computers (XP,98,95) all sharing an ethernet 
ADSL connection which is working fantastic.   What I want to do now is 
when I am not at home I want to be able to dial into my network with my 
laptop, have access to my home network and share that internet connection.

Is this possable and what software would I need to set something like 
this up?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Jason

hi,

I am sure XP (Pro) will be allow this to be done via some wizard but I
cant say for sure.  Win98/95 however can do this - if you install the
latest version of Dialup Networking it installs a "dialup server". 
You can then connect via modem directly to the 98/95 machine and by
running a small proxy - access the internet.  In effect you make you
PC/dsl into a mini ISP :-)

I documented what I did in a thread from ages ago:

Hope this helps you - I would recommend you see if XP can do it all
for you first tho.
