Need some insight into spreading a new Windows application across 5 identical LANs located at 5 geograpahical locations. Would prefer to do this with Windows stuff only (i.e., Windows 95 and/or Windows NT.)
One of the locations will be the MAIN office. The main office will contain the main file server.
All locations (including the main office) will consist of 3 computers networked together with Windows 95 in conjunction w/3COM Etherlink NICs/Cat 5 UTP. The application we want to run will be loaded on all computers at all locations.
Application data will reside on the main file server at the main office. We want to be able to access application data on the main file server in real time from any/all other computers regardless of location. We have to allow for multiple and concurrent requests directed at the server. Also, have to be able to print locally.
Have no idea what communication facilities need to be in place between computers on remote LANS and the main file server (e.g., modems, routers, switches, dedicated lines, dialup lines, fiber optics, etc. etc.)
