You are losing the performance enhancements that a split FE/BE .mdb setup offers. Every
form/report access requires multiple round-trips over the (relatively) slow network rather

Well, the performance hit on keeping the FE MDB/MDE isn't that bad. A
client running Citrix didn't want to copy the FE MDB/MDE to the Citrix
Server so we ran them off the file server. It worked reasonably well.
