Ok Here is the scenario. I have a windows 2000 server. What i want to do is share the access databases with some workstations that are at a different location(not in the same LAN). These workstations have Interenet.
What options do i have to do this? What do i need? Please give me details. Can anyone give me more information on this? Can anyone provide me with useful links and Resources?
I have heard of VPN. What do i need for that? do i need two network cards? A private IP? a private gateway? Step by step please

Have you considered giving those workstations access to the windows 2000 server thru PcAnywhere ?

Remote and local office's access client may connect to a SQL server instead of internal DB.
You don't necessarely need to establish a VPN tunnel. Depending of what SQL server you are using, open the proper tcp port on your main office's firewall. However vpn is useful when several services are deployed on the wan such as files sharing, popup, videoconference, databases access, ...
By VPN, i mean i real strong solution that use IPSEC standard!!! this will ensure a strong encryption and secure key exchange.
