Both suggestions are very easy, if, we had found out the the hotel room BB only
allow web browsing, BEFORE, everyone had left the office in Sydney for the day.

Put the PPT on a website that you host or have UserA send it to UserB in email
and use OWA or RPC/HTTP to get it.

Couple of days away with the wife was great !I recommend it to any who can get
some dope to pay for it.
Company has coughed up the dollars, which are in our account tonight !
And, low and behold,
I have another user at a Hotel in Adelaide tonight, from the BB in the room,
only port 80 and 443 allowed, everything else is blocked. They actually have a
card attached to the cable that says 'only web browsing is allowed' from this
connection.
This is getting dammed annoying !
What use is a BB in a hotel room to a corporate traveller, if the only thing
allowed is web browsing, and they charge $17.50 / night for the privilege ?
Anyone have any leads on if there is some program out there that will allow
connection through port 80, and allow file downloads. This guy was to download
a PowerPoint presentation his secretary had updated today, for a client
tomorrow.

What about Tom's earlier suggestion if he only needs his e-mail to use Outlook
2003 with RPC/HTTP and eliminate the VPN? Very easily/nicely setup with SBS
2003.

Plan is, I am going to take;
1. A linksys 4 port BB router, to plug in between the hotels BB, and his
notebook, which I think will do the trick nicely.
1. A wireless broadband card, just in case.
1. A second notebook with the companys SOE on it, also just in case.
1. My Wife, it will be a nice little day or two away for us.
