ShareTool is a fast, extremely secure, and magical way to remain connected to your home or office network(s) no matter where you are physically. While connected with ShareTool, many shared (Bonjour-enabled) services on your remote home or office network automatically appear in your Finder, iTunes, iPhoto, and tons of other applications (just as they would if you were physically located at that network).
With ShareTool, you would be able to encrypt all of your web traffic and route it through your home network, browse the web securely, listen to your entire home iTunes music library, control the screen of any of your home computers, grab that important file you forgot to bring with you, connect to your FileMaker Pro database, connect to your complete home iPhoto library, print on your home network, and a whole lot more.
ShareTool automatically provides Bonjour over VPN connections as well. No messy configuration required.
In addition, you can run ShareTool as a Mac OS X service via a background daemon. This means you don't actually need to be logged in as a user to share your network. Further, ShareTool 2 supports connecting to multiple networks at the same time! There no longer is a limit to the number of networks you can be connected to simultaneously.
