[dba-SQLServer] Schemas for separation of clients?

[Jim Lawrence]

Hi John:

To be honest with you, I am not sure having never done something like you need. I may too have to hit the books sometime soon, to find out the details.

Can you use it to connect Access to an IP on the remote machine?

I don't particularly need remote access per se, though I might if I go 
with AWS or the like.  What I am really trying to accomplish is hitting 
a SQL server with Access linked tables with minimal i/o (VPN) overhead.

But it does work. In order to do it however I set up a single user / password out in SQL Server, then come into the VM using Hamachi.  I think that Hamachi is one of the causes of the slowness, though since that is the only way in for me, it is tough to know exactly.
