Hi

A friend has asked how to share a hard drive on one machine with a user on another machine via the internet, but without taking over the remote machine.

I think he's working from home, but wants to connect to an external HD at work, but can't use Remote Desktop.

So, I think he needs to set-up a VPN, about which I know very little.

Would anyone recommened Open VPN for this purpose? or can someone please recommend another (free) VPN software? or perhaps an alternative route?

Both machines are running Vista.

Thanks
Simon
