Remote Connection via Mac

[SATM]

Hi,
We have our Sm Biz Server 2003 setup so we can log
into the server and individual clients remotely with
Windows systems, and we can get the Mac to remotely
connect to the SBS, but we cannot get the Mac to remotely
connect to a client on the network.

Current:
PC home computer ---> office network --> client
Mac home computer ---> office network --> x

Goal:
Mac home computer ---> office network --> client

Thanks for any help,
SATM

Can you do PC Home Computer -->(VPN)-->office network-->client ?

i.e. connect the PC at home, via VPN, to the office network, and thence to
any client.

The Mac should be able to do the same, I think, although I'm no expert on
Macs, I'm afraid.

The key thing here is to connect via VPN, rather than directly by Remote
Desktop Connection. The direct connection is going to connect you to the
server, rather than allow you to connect to clients.
