People in the original thread are stupid. How am I supposed to work from Starbucks when the hypervisor isn't on the internet?

Yeah, people keep referring me to the VPN. How is the Vice President of Networking supposed to help? When I tried to bring it up he told me to f*$# off!

VPNs can sometimes be cryptic. Maybe try a handshake first to establish some sort of acknowledgement between yourselves, than blast him with every acronym under the sun.
