Is there a way of making a connection to a database on a remote server? The intention is not to hack, but I have a customer who would like to perform a search in several identical databases on different web servers (with the owners permission) and show the result on the customers own web page.
Could this be done? Of course there must be some level of security, the db owners will if necessary give permissions to our customer.
I want to create a web page with a list of servers but in the link of
the server name, execute an RDC connection to that server/desktop.
IM trying to put up a small database in my website and having my visitors to search it. A record of this database will have four fields: The first one will hold a number, the second one a Street name, the third a City, and the fourth a picture. The database will be searched either by the number or by the city.

I am connecting to remote access database through my asp script. The Access database is on a different domain and my webserver(where asp scripts reside) is on a different domain.When i ran the script i got this scary error message:Code:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]General error Unable to open registry key 'Temporary (volatile) Jet DSN for process 0x3a8 Thread 0x7c4 DBC 0x2770ff4 Jet'.

I work with ASP for several weeks now and i really like it! But until now i have just used it in connection with my localhost. I made connections to a SQL Database and to an ACESS Database with using the ODBC Tool from WIndows!!
Now i want to publish my website but i don't know how to handle the connection string kind of thing. My MySQL-Database is on a different server than the website and i need a connection string where i can type in the server, a password and a username and it should then connect.

I was wondering if i can create an if/else statement that checks if my connection string that opens a database ie:
cnnDB.Open Application.Contents.Item("CONNECTION_STRING" )
(the actuall connection string is in my global.asa file incase u were wondering) ...or if the database can't be found or opened, will run some other code... like a message?
hope u get what i mean.
this is just incase a user has the DB opened, or is in the process of overiting the DB or something, the page would not display that Microsoft JET Database Engineerror but display a message i set up in the if/else statement.

View Replies View RelatedI have been trying to get an intranet search page to work that looks at an Access database. The database is called database.mdb, and lives in the root of the site, as does the .asp (security is not a problem at the moment). The code was taken from an asp website. I am running .net and Windows server 2000.
Could someone look at the code and tell me if it looks OK for connecting to the database? Then at least I can rule out code as the problem I am having.(receiving error codes)

I manage my department information through an Access relational database and an http network model database. Naturally enough I want to combine them.
We have an old NT driven LAN with pc's running Win 9x or XP pro. The file server is nearly up to capacity on storage and bandwidth, the new XP machines have plenty. The network is backed up daily. If possible I want to use the XP m/c as a web server.
I want to use IIS and ASP from an XP m/c to read and write to databases on the file server but can't seem to get the connection string right, I have tried many, with and without DSN's. Having checked up on IIS (installed on XP pro) I suspect that it can only connect locally. Certainly everything runs on a test setup in C:/inetpub/wwwroot which can be accessed across the LAN and ASP runs fine.
