Hello

i have a question about how terminal server works in regards to a situation
that we are currently using here in my work place.

we have an access database system with a data backend, i will call it
service db from now on, and a frontend file, called client db, on the
terminal server.

we use hamachi to create networks for each representative we have in other
countries. then the reps use remote desktop over those hamachi networks. this
system works really well.

further, each user is limited to using only the frontend file to connect to
the service db and view and enter data.

the question is this, does each user need thier own front end file? or does
the one file become copied for the instance of the users log in?

i am concerned about database and front end file corruption and would really
like to get some information on this.

thanks in advance. :)

Each user gets his/her own session/profile if you're publishing a
desktop and they have a unique logon.
