you will have change all the ip addresses to your home
units to be on the same network. you have to make sure
that your ip address is private otherwise it will try and
get onto the internet and then you will run into a dns
issue. if all the goes well you will then be able to see
your other shares. you will not be able to share folders
on your machine (laptop). also double check with you sys
admin from your office to make sure that it's ok to do
this.
