Yes, consider using an IPSec vpn connection. Something that supports L2TP. Do not use a PPTP vpn connection to connect sql servers.
Make sure you have a fast connection though. What kind of speaking do they have to do? -----Original Message----- From: Brook Davies [mailto:brook@;maracasmedia.com] Sent: Wednesday, October 23, 2002 2:29 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Remote SQl Server Is it practical to run a webserver on one side of town/country and connect to a remote SQL Server on the other side of town? We have a box that sends out mail and handles open rate tracking / bounce processing / unsubscribes etc. We need to host this mail/web server in a remote location (300 km away). Ideally, this box would be able to speak with an SQL server at our location here. Is this practical? What kind of network issues should I be concerned about? -Brook ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
