Jim, Basically it would be connecting one PC through another to get to the Internet. Or reversed, using one PC's internet connection for another PC to connect to the internet. The only connection would be wireless/Ethernet. -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Jim Lawrence Sent: Tuesday, December 08, 2009 3:28 PM To: 'Discussion of Hardware and Software issues' Subject: Re: [dba-Tech] Using Windows connection sharing Hi John: I am not quite sure what you asking in regards to windows sharing but I support many networks remote via Windows Desktop but always through a LogMeIn Hamachi directpipe (can connect to remote shares like '\\5.12.345.12\SharedFolder' and asign a letter to it once connected) and barring that I use some LogMeIn on stations off the servers. For Linux Clients/Servers I use Putty, UltraVNC and between Linux and Linux/Windows stations/servers I use a Linux Term Server Client (on all major distros).

I was wondering if I could use WCS on a PC with a Cellular 3G connection to access the Internet from another PC via a wireless router. Any comments?
