I have a nice size MS access 2000 database (12+ megs) and I would like to stick it online where anyone can run queries from it(not to be confused with download it). It would be on a server that I only have root access to. Is this possible on a linux server?
I have no clue about Linux, but if you want people to connect to it directly, they'd need some type of ODBC connection to it. Or are you talking about creating a front-end where people select filter criteria on, for example, a web page, which then passes queries to the database based on those filter criteria and receives the results, then displays the results in purrrty format? Either way, if you have a bunch of people hammering an Access database simultaneously, you tend to see interesting things happen.
I tried to look it up and do some research, but I couldn't find a good site for win2000. I want to try and keep it on the server(linux) if possible. How easy is it to create a front end?
