terminal server to host data over the net

Post by davesniper2 »

ok this is going sound strange but ill try to do my best....
first off i work for a lien company and we do liens for tow companies...now we also made a program that helps them with their tow info and all that stuff...now some of these tow companies want us to host their databases for them. the data base is in access so there is a lot of data. here is my question.. how should i have them connect to my server... now i was thinking terminal server but doesnt TS make it like you are at the computer running the software... so if i were to have lets say 5 CO. connected using the same program but accessing different databases will there be a problem with that..?

could allow secured access through an ODBC connection, I'd suspect.. then most databases can be used, not just Access... If done in a database architecture accessible from PHP (easily) you could also build an online application to access and manipulate the data, or at least view it.. so a manager on the road (for whatever reason) can keep tabs on things.. I guess..
