Moved App from PC to Server - Now How to Run App from PC? 1

[JohnBates]

Hi server pros,

To get better security, I have moved some app software from a PC to a 2003 Server. Also moved the SQL Server databases. I can get everything connected and working on the server...

But I'm struggling with how the user can run the app/exe, which resides on the server, from their XP desktop. I don't want them to have to remote into the server.

Sorry for such an elementary question

Thanks, John

You'll probably need to install the app on the users desktop and have it configured to connect to the remote database.
