That shoudn't be a problem as long as its not the same time. I use Newhosting and I can log on from home and work ( 2 different ips )

its even better - i share my newshosting account with 2-3 simultaneous IPs...you're not supposed to, but i guess as long as you dont all have maxed out 10mbit lines, you should be ok

from the above replies it seems that the newshosting allows that right?
what other servers allow but still has good retention as well gd speeds?

If you want to do this I really suggest NewsHosting and if you do decide to signup dont forget to use our refferal link...

Yeah NZB's!
Who wants to have to download 100 MB's of headers??
