Re: Please Advice....Thanks.



As alexk hinted, there isn't really enough info here to say a lot about
it.

Here is a general answer to a general question. If you can't have a
direct connection or a leased line, you should probably look at a VPN link.
However VPN doesn't always work well with database applications. The latency
of the connection can cause timeout problems. Terminal Services might be a
better option (because the app would run on the terminal server in the same
network as the database server with fast network access).

You can even use both TS and VPN. The app runs on the terminal server
and the KVM data between client and server has the extra security of VPN
authentication and encryption.
