Hi, Mike:

Let me make a silly suggestion...

Use a Virtual Private Network solution to allow the two Cities to
share the same network, well virtually, and privately.

I don't think it's practical, even with "high-speed" networking, to
share a DBF-using application over long distance. Timing and latency
could lead to pretty difficult to debug problems.

How about an RDP server at the City B with the DBF files? I'm not sure
what the license cost is for 50 seats, but I know remote printing
works fine.
