We have a 5 Mac network with 2 LW's running TOPS and InterMail.  We would like
to be able to access files on the server from off-site.  Does anyone know if
there is a program for dialing up a Mac and using it remotely?  One of our
users would like to be able to run TOPS remotely.  I told him it was not very
likely such a thing could be done, and that his real concern seemed to be
being able to get at files from home.  I do remember someone mentioning a remote
access capability on the net, but I don't have the article.

In summary, does anyone have any suggestions for Mac remote access?  Should
we setup a bboard system (e.g. Red Ryder Host) so people can up/down load
over the phone?  If the Host route seems the best currently available could
someone give me a pointer to a place to get RRH from with complete doc's.

Thanks for your help,

Steve Leeke
