In order to connect using a network card, you need to install the network card driver and TCP/IP protocol . If your PC already has an intranet connection, you do not have to do anything to connect to your host PC from a guest PC.
The Connection Wizard can help you to check your PC's network
setting.
Ping is a good tool for checking your connection.
See Connection checking by ping.

Firewall considerationFrom a security point of view, it is very
important to have a firewall between an intranet
and the Internet. The purpose of a firewall
is to protect the corporate network against
attacks or invasions from outside. The current
version of Desktop On-Call does not allow
access via a firewall. However, this restriction
may be inconvenient. To avoid this inconvenience,
you are recommended to prepare a dialup server
to accept access from outside a company. |
