[vpn] VPN and firewall question

No
Yes
Yes (or a Linksys like device which is the better option as you can then
use your single connection with multiple PC's, etc.)

Subject: [vpn] VPN and firewall question


Hi,

I was hoping if someone would be able to answer this question.

I have cable modem connection at home and also use VPN provided by my 
company to dialin for work related stuff. Will the personal stuff on my
PC 
at home be protected by the company's firewall? And, will someone be
able to 
use my home PC to hack into the company network? i.e. do I need to buy a

firewall sftware and install at my home PC?

Thanks

Hari Kannan
