Share database over the Internet

I have a database which I want to share with people ove the intenet.

I am planning to split the database and upload the backend on to the intenet. The client PC's would have their individual copy of the frontend.

Please let me know whether it is possible to do so? Is there any better method of performing this task.

My database is not very critical so security is not of much importance at the moment.

We will have a maximum of 5 users and even then it is highly unlikely that there will be more than 1 user accessing the database at one time.

I plan to upload the backend of the database on to our company's website as follows:
www.godawarimarble.com/teldir/tdbe.mdb
Please let me know whether it would work in this fashion.

Also please let me know whether there are any specific requirements for the web server where the backend would be stored or the client PC's from where the frontend would be used. Also can you please send me any other pertinent details which would be helpful in sharing this particular database of mine over the internet.

Thanks

you should just make the whole thing a webbased system, that would work best. you'd need someone able to write some scripts for the stuff that needs to be done on the database, and if youre using .mdb you'll probably need an ODBC server.

Maybe you should consider an XML-based solution. It is very versatile and it sounds like it could meet your needs. Also, security should always be an issue.
