Sorted :)
And the reason ? Well, I now have a second ADSL line provided by work
so, I figured I could use it to download bits 'n bobs. That way, I wouldn=

be using my own line and causing my son's Frag Ops games to lag.
Problem is that the Win2K box is short on disk space (and runs w/out moni=
tor
k/board etc) but I have another machine with a few gig spare - work route=
r =
assigns IP addresses in the range 192.168.254.* and my home LAN is on 192=
=2E168.0.*
I've now got the work router connected to my switch and can use
pcAnywhere to control the Win2K box from the 192.168.0.* subnet
and have mapped to the machine with the large disk.
Excellent :)
Ta for the help Andrew - much appreciated as always :)
