^if you have a VPN running at home or setup port forwarding in your router then yes. The iPhone version of that app is netportal.

Stapler, look for a program called Tag and Rename. It only really works if you're dealing with full albums, but it is amazing! You can even have it rename the files to whatever file naming convention you choose. It basically polls CDDB and Amazon (which bought out CD Now a few years ago) for all the metadata and pulls it down.
Stunna, 2 questions. First, does YAAMM run on the server or on one of your client machines? Second, your File Browser app, is that iPad only, or is there an iPod Touch version of it as well? And how much is it?
This could be the answer to my prayers. I just got my WHS (not vale ) set up the other day. I'm going to start ripping movies before too long and getting them up them on it.

YAMMM runs on my client machine. I've not set it up on multiple Windows PCs yet but I think you need a copy of YAMMM for each machine cause it needs to create a cached local copy of the XML files on the server in order to work in Media Center. Besides that there shouldn't be a need to have it. You could run it on the server too if you'd like.
I already answered your 2nd question in the post above your's.

Ahh, okay, I get it now. May not be quite as ideal as I thought for my uses then.
I figured the answer to the File Browser app was in the links but for some reason the site is blocked from work. I'll have to have a look when I get home.

Well I just tested out my movie setup on another Windows machine that doesn't have YAMMM installed and it looks like this.
It gets the images but doesn't get the metadata like reviews, cast + crew, related movies. You'd need a local copy of YAMMM for that.

^I hardly go to the movies, the last movie I saw in the theaters was where the wild things are and before that was Semi-pro maybe. I probably go to less movies than you. These movies are a collection spanning from the 1920s until now. I have been using Netflix a lot lately.

OK, so I have an icky yucky work-related problem. Here at work we have our own self-signed certification authority (CA) running on a 2003 Server box. This CA issues a server certificate to the 2003 Server box we have running Microsoft IAS as a RADIUS server for our wireless authentication.
I am looking to implement a WPA(2) enterprise environment throughout my building and currently have a single access point in my office configured in this manner. XP SP2, XP SP3, Leopard, Snow Leopard, and iPhone/iPad all work fine. They each essentially pop up a notification box stating that the server certificate was issued by an unknown/untrusted certification authority, would you like to continue anyway?
Here’s the problem. Windows 7 is offering no such prompt. You attempt to connect to the SSID, get prompted for a username and password three times, and then simply get a message from the OS stating “Unable to connect to [SSID].” A check of the system log shows error 36882 from source Schannel which states:
So Win 7 is doing exactly what it should be doing and what everything else does. The problem is that it does not provide this information to the end user and give them and opportunity to say Yeah, I know. Go ahead anyway. I need to know whether something in Win 7 can be changed to eliminate this and make it behave like everything else does. I’ve spent about an hour searching on this today and found lots of info related to Win 7 accepting certificates, but nothing that mentions this particular issue.

BTW, any solution needs to be independent of AD and Group Policy. The whole point of changing our wireless environment is so machines don't have to joined to the domain to connect.

Yeah I've had that and I can't seem to config it to find the movies on my server so it's useless to me.

The RDP prompt, while certificate related, essentially concerns a different matter and is a different prompt than I the one I was referring to.
Here is what the prompt I am referring to looks like on OS X. XP has a similar prompt.

I think you'd use dvd shrink for that. I've never used it though

W7 question:
The "show desktop" button on the right side of the task bar... I want it on the left side. With XP you could make a shortcut top "desktop". How in W7?
