Has anybody any experience of www.returnil.com This is free for personal use and <$30, <25 Euros, <£22 British. Is this worth paying for when compared to the MS equivalent which is free. I don't have the knowledge to suss out the difference. For work, it would be great to have the server with the BE on book to a Virtual, copy the data BE to the virtual where everybody can link to it. ~On the front ends (PCs) have people boot to virtual where the FE is loaded and then when re-booted any downloaded crap is destroyed/lost. I should then, I think, have a pristine system which is reset each day with no Trojans, viruses, etc. Thanks Max -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Drew Wutka Sent: 08 February 2009 17:08 To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] Semi-OT - VM Ware Virtual Server 2005 R2 (The current 'free' version from Microsoft) has both a browser and remote console based access.

Could you ask him about that? My colleague prefers to have the trouble opening ports in the firewall to be able to deal with the previous Windows-based Server Console. /gustav >>> erbachs at gmail.com 07-02-2009 12:50 >>> Rocky, Our network admin relies on VMWare for all sorts of stuff. He set up a monster server or two with 24 GB of RAM and 8 processors. VMWare machines have been set up to run SQL Server, Exchange Server, web servers, etc., etc., ... It's to the point now where he doesn't even consider setting up a system to just run an OS by itself. Now, it's set up to act as a VMWare host to run multiple servers. Interestingly enough, he doesn't use the latest VMWare 2 stuff, he's a believer in 1.4 or whatever the newest-but-one version is. I trust his judgement because he is the absolute hugest uber-geek I've ever met, bar none.
