Hi Andy, 

Many thanks for your response, I think I may well have mixed my terms 
in my question, I have the following boxes I would like  to connect
together.

Windows NT Laptop Computer name UKC********* Domain EUR-IT-******
Windows NT Laptop Computer Name Cl**** Domain Eur****
Windows NT Server Computer Name Nutwood Server Domain Nutwood
Windows 98 PC Computer Name Paul Workgroup Nutwood
Windows 98 PC Computer Name Clare Workgroup Nutwood
Windows 98 Fuji Computer Name Fuji Workgroup Nutwood
3Com ISDN LAN Modem Workgroup Name Nutwood.

Currently the 98 pc's and NT Server connect via the 3Com box and all 
is well with the world, the laptops connect via seperate routers to 
their respective company networks due to security setups.

However in May I can have ADSL and we will be able to connect to the 
offices via a VPN, so all I need is to get both Laptops on the 
Internet!

The Domain names for the laptops cannot be changed as we would be 
nackered when we go into the office.

Is there a way of getting all of these computers talking to the same 
ADSL router?

Regards

Paul
