Is there a way to set up my computer so that I can dial in using telnet(or some other prog) from a remote location and have access to my files using a password? I have DSL with a firewall and my computer is always running.

Sounds Good, I know it is possible, I just don't know the logistics...

There's a bunch of software available to do this. I believe PCAnywhere is one of the more popular or something. . .

Just set up you PC as an FTP server. There are a bunch of programs available to do this - IIS or Personal Web Server can do it, and there are 3rd party products like WarFTP. Search on Tucows or Shareware.com & you'll find a bunch of them. Just make sure you turn off anonymous access if you don't want people snooping your files.

check out VNC; it's popular, and free!
