I have Sharepoint which runs on a server across a WAN. I have changed the homepage successfully in my office, however the start page in other offices remains the old page (although all instances of directing to the home page go to the new page). All the answers I have found so far require ‘Publishing’ which we don’t seem to have.
Thanks!
Nat

AskWoody LoungerYankeeNat, welcome!
I’m afraid your question is a little obtuse.
It sounds like you have a new SharePoint site that you wish to redirect client PC’s in remote offices to use as their internet home pages? If so, just update the browser home page by Group Policy and force out over the network.
If you need to edit the SharePoint site, you could use the MS SharePoint Designer
