But Citrix is not free. Licensing costs quickly get very expensive.

Paul,

I have read everyone's reply and saw that there are so many giving very good advice.

I will tell you about easy and secure.

It is called working on a client side.

I use a Citrix Farm and there is NO DIRECT USE OF TABLES FROM ANY USER!

Not only that, you can access the server from anywhere in the world and still have the same exact security.

God to WWW.CITRIX.COM and read carefully so you can weigh your options.

Citrix is the reason Microsoft came up with Terminal Services.. and is very very secure, both from the Workstation users and from outside users of the same VFP-Tables that are on a MS Server 2003 with a Citrix Farm set up.

Good luck and hope this help some.

By the way.. Its fast too.

Later,

J.

A couple questions re oledb:

I have an application that uses FoxPro tables in a simple shared folder on a file server. In order to improve security, I'm considering putting the data on a Windows Server 2003 machine and accessing it via OleDB (as a simpler alternative to moving the data to SQL Server).

(The workstations are not in a domain.)


1. Will this do what I want, i.e., considerably improve security over the current file server system?


2. Believe it or not, I've never used OleDB. ODBC yes, but not OleDB. Can someone point me to a tutorial?
