How do I go about doing this, I can do port forwarding etc

In the past I've just used Hamachi as it's been for personal use, now I need to do it between two offices

All machines are running Windows XP/2003, and I can manage both offices from here at the moment to set them up (over hamachi)

Router on the other side is a BT2700HGV if that makes any difference
 
thanks for the info guys

for now i've just created windows 2x hamachi connections for 2 users (that's all they basically need)

will look into what you've suggested, but i doubt my boss wants to spend much money, for what they need it for, sending files over email wouldn't be that much of a bother..

i hope he does want to spend the money tho, so i can get a bit more experience in networking, i've got home networking to a tea now (really not much to it though)


edit, will look into getting two draytek routers, can anyone suggest ones that'll work (one of the directors will want wireless for one office), not much traffic goes through them tbh, at the moment one office is using a usb1.1 modem -> firewall box :E so that really needs replacing -max adsl in the area is 1.5, but the modem limits it to 1.1 :)
