I am tring to fix a issue. We have quickbooks running on 3 pc's getting shared. And because of how quickbooks works and sharing over a network it makes it slow. Very slow. Once you get 3 users on quickbooks it crawls. But if you install it all on one pc so it doesnt use the network for quickbooks it runs alot faster. So this is where I got the idea. Also I have found quickbooks stays alot more stable when not over the network. Ive had the company file crash 2x because of droped connection. And when the file crashes you lose alot of data. The idea is to make it faster and more stable. Do you guys think its a good application for remote?
Passthru,
The file sharing was just my first idea. I dont think that is necessary now. I want to go with the remote desktop. But I am unsure weather I can do the OpenSolaris or the FreeBSD. Some of the stuff right now is over my head. Not saying I cant learn it. I am pretty good with computers so. Never been shy about doing anything on a computer. But I have never done anything not in Dos or windows. I would like to figure it out though.
I would like to setup it up so when they turn the terminal computers on. It asks for login information and that connects you to the server. Not sure how hard that would be though.
