How to access your home computer remotely
Filed in archive Utilities on October 7, 2007
There are times when you need to access your home computer remotely, either to retrieve a file or simply check out a document. Unfortunately, most broadband providers use dynamic IP addresses making your home computer a bit difficult to access remotely. Whilst there are free services that provide you a DNS entry to make remote access easier, you need to take note that doing so opens up your computer to the outside world. So how do you enable remote access and yet making sure that connections and access are secure?
Linux.com Feredico Kereki provides a step-by-step guide to enabling a secure remote access for computers without routable IP address.

I know that many people, myself included, have a hard time getting these to work from within Windows. There are many third party solutions available to address these needs, my favorite of which can be found here - http://www.proxynetworks.com
