Hello,
I live in Germany, the rest of my family in the States and Canada. In total we have 6 households with Macs, which we would like to network together as if we were all living in the same house. Is this possible? With which tools? I have read that Panther has a VPN client, but would we also need servers? What does the network topography look like to make something like this work?
Note: this has *nothing* to do with anonymous P2P or with MP3 sharing! The network need only connect these 6 households, all known to each other, and no-one else. We basically just want to build a virtual family LAN, and have all the LAN benefits that we might have had, were we still living in the same house.
thanks for your help!
