>Are there any other options for launching a file server based app over a WAN or dial up? I have a significant investment in an application that now must be accesible to many sites throughout my company that are attached via T-1 to our WAN. The only thing I have heard about "light client" is Citrix, and NT's "Hydra", which I think is teaming up with Citrix in some way.


Well....maybe no "in the box" solutions but maybe an application topology solution:

1. What about going "fat client"? Put the app on client machines, replicate remote tables to local tables where possible to minimize WAN traffic?

2. How about going "intranet"? Make client access to application via a browser, putting processing and data access at the server end?
